I’m an anthropologist, sometimes I occupy things & such.

I see anarchism as something you do not an identity...

...so don’t call me the anarchist anthropologist

well this has definitely got to be the very stupidest version of the Beavis & Buthead level “well I say YOU have a bullshit job, heh heh, ha ha” retort: this genius thinks “anarchist” is a “job” https://t.co/qdfbcK3cdR

… given my own experience, of course, my faith in the anthropological establishment – or certainly, the American anthro establishment – to do the right thing in any fraught political circumstance is very close to zero #hautalk

I’m not saying even senior scholars are necessarily in a position to fix the problems – many due to structural changes in Universities & larger political-economic forces which at least in theory we oppose – but the first thing those who suffer usually want is just acknowledgement

here’s a thought re #hautalk – why not take the occasion to ask what is going on in our own departments? Are junior scholars being bullied? Are adjuncts & grad students being exploited? Are there people who not only live in fear but are afraid to even say so?
