This course is an introduction to the tremendous diversity of contemporary American Indian sovereign nations' and their citizens' experiences in the territory now known as the United States. American Indian Nations Today addresses the complexities of contemporary Native Nation topics by providing context for understanding the distinct political, legal, economic, social, and cultural institutions of Native Nations today. These topics and issues are analyzed from individual, local, and national Native and non-Native perspectives through readings, media, and occasional guest speakers.
