PSY 674

Students will examine the impact of settler-colonialism on Indigenous Peoples in Canada (e.g., residential school system, intergenerational trauma, current systemic racism/discrimination, the need for reconciliation); learn about Indigenous ways of being, knowing, and doing; critically reflect on the implications of settler-colonialism for psychological research and practice; and learn about Indigenous research approaches (e.g., methodologies, epistemologies, Indigenization, decolonization). The course highlights the contributions of Indigenous people to psychology, and is open to Indigenous and non-Indigenous students. Enrollment requires completion of PSY 411.
