The department of Cultural Studies at Mount Saint Vincent University is excited to add CULS 2333: Global Indigeneities to its Fall 2026 course offerings. This interdisciplinary course will explore a global range of Indigenous identities, cultures, and ways of being through contemporary Indigenous film, television, music, art, and other forms of expression.
The course was recently designed by Dr. Bernadette Russo, Assistant Professor in English and Cultural Studies at MSVU. The themes for the Fall 2026 offering will include Indigenous identity, sexuality, and gender. It will focus on the Sámi of the Nordic region of Sápmi; the Māori of New Zealand; and the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples of Australia, as well as potentially one other Indigenous peoples chosen by students.
