BCM103: Indigenous History and Contemporary Cultural Experience
This unit provides background for understanding contemporary Indigenous society and culture by focusing on Indigenous post-settlement history and thinking to examine contemporary cultural experience, including strategies and creative responses to colonisation and its aftermath. Students engage with historic and theoretic frames to enhance and develop their knowledge, understanding and appreciation of Indigenous experience, culture and identity. Students develop critical tools to further examine and evaluate the complexities of contemporary Indigenous issues, and engage with the ways that Indigenous experience has been constructed, shaped and represented.
