Comparative Literature 105: Indigenous Feminisms
Professor Alicia Carroll

This upper-division seminar engages with novels, memoirs, dramatic and documentary films, poetry, and essays by Native American and Indigenous feminist scholars, artists, and activists from across the Americas, Hawai’i, Australia, and Aotearoa/New Zealand to examine multiple intersections of oppression based on gender, sex, sexuality, race, indigeneity, and class. The course materials focus on the intellectual and political interventions of Indigenous feminists who assert that historical and present forms of gendered violence—including sexual assault, domestic abuse, environmental destruction, and the impositions of heteronormativity and patriarchy—are key components of Indigenous genocide and the larger context of settler colonialism.
