Michel-Rolph Trouillot’s Silencing the Past fundamentally rewired how I analyze historical narratives. The reminder that power shapes not just the story, but the archive itself, is indispensable.

Yes! This is what anthropology looks like! What a thrill to be the Keynote speaker for the 2024 AAA conference and to get to showcase the breadth of anthropology and acknowledge the people who have shaped and impacted me along the way. What an honor!

Powerful
Empire and Disaster, our special issue, is coming soon!
As we experience an era of unprecedented disaster, this issue, as @Beliso_DeJesus describes, “disrupt[s] the naturalization of disaster, situating how marginalized and racialized populations live in the wake of empire.”

On the blog today, @Beliso_DeJesus explains the racist origins behind "excited delerium syndrome," often used to justify police violence. It's the subject of her new book.

Cover is black with an inverted black and white image of several figures in an urban setting behind police tape. Trees behind the figures appear to be glowing brightly. The title appears in orange on the top half of the design and the subtitle and author name are smaller and in white.
