Exploring Native American Culture assignments are opportunities provided in each unit to research and gain insight into Native American culture through non-literary cultural artifacts. For Unit 1, complete the following assignment:
- Choose a Native American artist in a genre other than literature (film, art, music, etc.) OR a traditional Native American art form (dance, music, jewelry, etc.)
- Research the artist and/or the art form (minimum two sources)
- Compose a 2-3 paragraph essay that addresses the following:
- Summarize and explain how the artist’s work OR the art forms demonstrate Native American values
- Make connections between your research and the works we’ve read so far – what themes and values are similar? Be sure to cite any works you reference from the course readings.
- Include evidence in the form of quotes or paraphrased ideas from at least two sources complete with MLA citation.
