American Indian women have most often been constructed as either a beast of burden or as a sultry Indian princess in Euro-American discourse. This course explores these stereotypes, placing them in a historical context. We also compare these constructions to the constructions of gender and womanhood in Native societies. We will discuss both historical and current experiences of Native women, as well as the construction of sexuality as it relates to gender, and consider how these experiences have been shaped in relation to the wider dominant society. |
