Ps. I’d suggest starting an anthro course (esp if taught in the US) with reading Zora Neale Hurston’s Barracoon along with the Netflix doc the Descendants to understand how anthro has barely scratched the surface of what the field could have been had ppl valued her over Mead, etc

Colleges and institutions that protect white supremacists as they attack and harass us while we are doing the jobs we were hired to do should provide hazard pay for this kind of work. Isaac Kamola’s new book on “Free Speech and Koch Money” provides a rubric 1/3 https://t.co/GJYIJaNp7m
