The course will investigate the role that law plays in the lives of Indigenous peoples and their attempts to secure rights and exercise self-determination. It seeks to answer broad questions such as: \"How does the law function to perpetuate a history of assimilation and racism?\"; \"How can Indigenous peoples use the law to secure rights?\"; and \"What role do legal institutions play in the process of Nation Building?\" To answer these questions, the course draws from comparative sources with a focus on how the law can be used pragmatically to effect change.
