Alex DeCoteau, an enrolled member of the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa, is teaching a class in the Ojibwe language online this semester at Minot State. DeCoteau said in an email last month that he believes it is the first time MSU has ever offered a class in Ojibwe. “I’m hoping indigenous students will get an amount of healing from the genocide that has prevailed our history with colonization,” said DeCoteau in the email. “I’m hoping the non-indigenous students will learn that Ojibwe people and culture are not a threat to their own.”
