Description :

This course explores the history of First Nations land in British Columbia—from early contact to the present day. We will learn how newcomers claimed, occupied, and removed First Nations peoples from their land and how they responded. We will examine stories of land lost and, in some cases, regained, and consider how this history lives with us today. Understanding our shared past helps us to understand how we got to where we are—and, perhaps, where we might go next.

Instructor: Robin Fisher has taught British Columbia history in several universities and is the author of a number of books on the subject. His most recent book was the winner of the 2023 Lieutenant Governor’s medal for the best book on British Columbia history. He has taught for Elder College for several years and is the President of Mid Island Elder College.
