This course is an opening survey of the inner workings and underpinnings of the Native cultures of Canada using historical, philosophical, spiritual and sociological frameworks from which to gather insight into both the uniqueness and the universality that flows through Native communities to this day. Special emphasis is placed on exploring fundamental principles involving Native evolution, values, current lifestyles and world view, with an eye to observing these constructs coming from the environment or natural world.
