Comment :
Looks at modern issues of First Nations people in North America. An interesting course that goes into details of events that you hear about in the news but don't know very much about. The textbooks were interesting and helpful on midterms. The essay was hard to write as the Guelph library does not have a very large section on First Nations. The course may be different now as Prof. Rose is no longer at the university.

Interesting course. Deals with the issues facing First Nations people and communities today and a bit of past major conflicts. Overall was a good course, but if you are looking for more of a historical cultural viewpoint look towards ANTH3650.
