This course will provide an overview of Métis identity, culture, Language(s), history and governance. Métis ethnogenesis will be explored to build awareness that Métis does not simply mean, "mixed." Grounded in authentic teachings, students will be immersed in perspectives and understandings unique to Métis. Academic research will support accurate, authentic narratives of historical and contemporary issues that have shaped who Métis are, the distinct history and resilience as a people and a Nation.
