***:
First Peoples Studies at Concordia University focuses on an exploration of First Nations, Inuit and Métis within Quebec and the Canadian context. It explores colonization and Indigenous responses to the various attacks on Indigenous life on Turtle Island. Professors engaged in community research will help students develop an awareness of First Peoples issues, from a First Peoples perspective, and deepen understandings of society’s standing in relation to First Peoples. Courses cover history, contemporary social and political issues, culture and linguistics. Langue courses include introductory-level Inuktitut; Haudenosaunee (Iroquoian) languages, especially Kaniek’kehá: ka (Mohawk); and Algonquian languages (particularly Cree). Other topics include health, education, the media and storytelling. The program has a strong focus on ethical research and engagement as well as decolonizing systems, the #landback movement and the mobilization of women, Two Spirit and land defenders.
First Peoples Studies is housed within the School of Community and Public Affairs, an interdisciplinary school that offers interdisciplinary education that blends theory and practice in the study of policy, community and other ways of building a more just and inclusive world.
