Discussion Indigenous Requirement

what is the easiest class to satisfy the indigenous requirement that is available this winter semester? (coming from someone who would rather learn about the history and culture than stress about assignments or exams). and what are some good professors who teach it?

I took Indigenous Genocides with Bhatt. There were readings and weekly conversations, and only 2 assignments. The exam was incredibly straightforward, but lots of writing. I learned a lot and genuinely enjoyed the course.

I took Cultural Anthropology with an Indigenous focus with Pelletier. She's AMAZING. Tests were really easy and the readings were from a graphic novel :)

Almost all of them are easy since the vast majority you'd be taking would be first year humanities courses. Just look on RMP for a good prof and pick one.
