This course reads a representative sample of texts by African-Canadian writers who may be regarded as "Black and Indigenous" and/or "Afro-Métis" and/or who explore this intersectional identity that has been long-obscured, often disputed, and yet indisputably present. Indeed, as more and more Black Canadians claim or name this identity, so will it be necessary to attend to their writing out of a dual-racial, or biracial, experience of oppression, protesting both notions of "race purity" and government definitions of who is or can be "status" Indigenous, Inuit, or Métis. For an introduction to the controversies and conundrums around this Black-and-Indigenous self-concept, see George Elliott Clarke, "Assembling the Afro-Métis Syllabus: Some Preliminary Reading," Zeitschrift für Kanada-Studien, 42 (2022), pp. 10-41.
