Overview

One of the most important dimensions of Tribal Sovereignty is the preservation and sharing of cultural knowledge.

As we explore the complexities of Tribal Sovereignty today, it’s important to include a study of Mexican - U.S. relations. After all, much of what is now the United States was Mexico before 1848 (see below).

Today in class, you’ll watch Precious Knowledge, a film that explores several issues we tapped into at the start of this class when you discussed Why study US History? The film should also complicate your understanding of concepts of Tribal Sovereignty, Indigenous History, and their relationship to Mexican-American identities.

TASK

Please read through the questions, below, and answer them while you watch the film, Precious Knowledge (will need KCLS library card to access, free to sign up).

DUE

This assignment is due on Thursday, October 24th.
