This course focuses on policy, particularly policy that is designed to bring First Nations and non-native peoples together. An analysis of policies, existing and historical will be broken down to why do they exist and what do they hope to achieve and how can we achieve that outcome. Questions of what is reconciliation, the historical context around reconciliation and the development of Aboriginal protocols and how they are applied to black/white relationships will be explored. An analysis of historical and contemporary contexts will be translated into ways that policy can be practically applied and continually reviewed.
