    • Special Topics in Race, Ethnicity, and Nation: Native American Genders and Sexualities . SOC W 139NG

    This course introduces students to some of the most salient and critical themes/interventions within the field of queer Indigenous studies across the Americas and the Pacific from a sociological perspective with a focus on the sociology of gender and sexuality. As a uniquely American Indian driven perspective on issues of sexuality, this course examines not just sexuality and issues of gender, but provides students with course content distinct from any other in the department and university---it offers a historic and contemporary analysis of Native and Indigenous sexuality that is specific to the field of American Indian Studies and Critical Ethnic Studies.

    I don't think there will ever be a teacher as amazing as him. He was so sweet, cared for us so much and just made everyday fun. I wish I could take this class a hundred times over. I didn't go to the performances (lazy and stuff got in the way) and managed a B+. Definitely check this out once we're back on campus.

    Just about the most easygoing professor and class. Insultingly easy A. Slides cover everything you need to know and are posted online. Graded on MC quizzes, two OPEN-BOOK FRQ exams and a final paper, all extremely free. Material is interesting too, if that matters to you. Heavenly GE. Most people don't even know theater UD's exist, so don't sleep.
