Students read their personal novels for the first few minutes of class - students are reminded that they must come with these for every class.
We talked about a few brief videos connecting Indigenous identities and land - We moved from ICE arrests in the USA to "green imperialism" on Sami lands in Nordic countries. We concluded with a quick reel of an Indigenous content creator mocking some of the racist conceptions/misconceptions/ideas he comes in contact with via self-denigration/mocking racist critique for the sake of humour. **Humour as a key to resilience seem consistent across Indigenous cultures.
Students got a look at many, many examples of their unit project, and then began to plan.
Timeline:
- Monday/Wednesday next week students will have class time.
- Work can go home - it can also come to tutorial, or be worked on in the Writing Lab.
- Projects are due on Tuesday, February 3rd
