This is a crucial opportunity to demonstrate your understanding and critical thinking on indigeneity and its intersection with global issues. It's the culmination of our semester's work, and I'm eager to see your insights. For this prompt, you will be free to pick a topic we have covered in this course and argue how it relates to Indigeneity/Indigenous peoples. We've learned about settler colonialism, the logic of elimination, mestizaje in Mexico, sovereignty, Hawaiian Sovereignty (documentary), animism, and language/cultural reclamation. I suggest you pick multiple topics and explain how they relate to one another. Or, if you can think of other issues we talked about but I failed to highlight, you are also free to write about them.
You must incorporate the course readings/lecture material in your argument. You all should have an abundance of quotes from your reading responses, so you must include as many as possible. Also, try to make your conclusion personal. How does what you've learned apply to your life, or how do you see it at work in our current global order? Your paper must be at least five pages long, in 12-point font, Times New Roman, and double-spaced. No outside sources are allowed. You can use parenthetical citations, and no bibliography is needed. The most important part is to be creative. The due date is May 17th. Thank you all for a great
