    ALASKA NATIVE STUDIES COURSE

    The Politics of Indigenous Identity


    Spring 2013 ANS F493 DD1 CRN: 39797 (Audioconference) or ANS F493 FM1 CRN: 39764 (Fairbanks campus-Audio) Meets Thursdays 5:108:10 p.m. 1/175/10 Instructor: Gordon L. Pullar (glpullar@alaska.edu) Who do you think you are?
    Alaska Natives and American Indians are the only ethnic group in America required to have government issued identification cards to prove their authenticity as Natives. They are also the only American ethnic group faced with the question, How much Native are you? The blood quantum game is often used to pass judgment on who qualifies as an authentic Native. This course examines indigenous identity from legal, biological, cultural, and selfidentification perspectives. Students will take a journey of self-discovery in researching and learning more about their own potentially diverse backgrounds and identity development and where they fit in America.
