This seminar introduces students to the scholarship on race, ethnicity, and Indigeneity in the United States. Rather than a comprehensive survey, readings will demonstrate the geographical, temporal, and methodological dynamism of recent and classic works that center race, colonialism, and Indigenous people in U.S. history. While situated in history, the seminar will necessarily engage questions and approaches from other fields and disciplines such as Black Studies, Native American and Indigenous Studies, American Studies, Comparative Ethnic Studies, and Gender and Sexuality Studies. We will consider the challenges, ethics, stakes, and potential of doing U.S. history in the twenty-first century.
