Description

This course examines Aboriginal understandings of the sacred in both Traditional and Christian contexts, including oral traditions, ceremonies, and spiritual practices. Attention is given to the diverse cultural heritages of Indigenous peoples in Canada, historical and contemporary aspects of Aboriginal/non-Aboriginal relations, and ongoing processes of reconciliation in both national and church contexts.
