Social Science (SOC-SCI) - The Imagery Of The American Indian In Film
SOCIOL 325      The Imagery Of The American Indian In Film
This course will trace the imagery of the American Indian used by film makers through the years and how this has played a role in reinforcing certain inaccurate perceptions of American Indian cultural, social, and economic life. The course examines the sociological implications created by persistently showing misrepresented images of American Indians. The goal is to measure and compare the reality of American Indian live (values, traditions, and beliefs) with the images created by film makers from the early years of the 20th century to the present. Also cross listed as ANTHRO 325.
