Happy #AnthroDay !

It's February 16 – Anthropology Day! This morning, I'm zooming into a class of sixth graders to talk about what culture is, who has one (yes, you), and how learning to understand other people can make our worlds bigger.

#AnthroDay #anthropology

We're looking for some folks interested in #anthropology to attend the Human Relation Area Files at Yale University's virtual #AnthroDay Open Day. Get in touch if you're interested! It will take place on 2/16 or 2/17 in the afternoon EST. There's a form to collect your interest. Students and instructors are welcome. We're trying to up our numbers by the middle of this week so we can build this fun event! Non-anthropologists are also welcome to learn about #HRAF!

In honor of #AnthroDay I'm participating in the K12 matchmaking program. A colleague and I will be Zooming into a sixth grade California classroom to explore how learning about language, culture and identity can increase our respect and understanding of differences. This will be fun. (:

Anthropology Day is coming up, and ... I just signed up for the K-12 matchmaking program!

Backstory, February 16 is #AnthroDay, a time to celebrate the discipline and share it with the wider world. In the matchmaking program, anthropologists can sign up to present to a classroom of K-12 students on a topic of their choice. I chose #archaeology and #creationStories.

And now, I'm excited.
