This course approaches the history of Indigenous Peoples from a transnational and relational perspective. We will use the histories of the Wixaritari (Huichol) in Jalisco, Mexico, various communities of colonial New England, and the Tewa Pueblo of New Mexico to understand the unique but interrelated experiences of these peoples and the challenges they faced amidst competing colonial, national, and imperial powers. Students will utilize some of these new interdisciplinary trends and methods in the discipline of Indigenous/Indian/Native American Studies to analyze primary sources collected from various archives in Jalisco, Mexico, Mexico City, and New Mexico.
