This isnโ€™t good. Folklore has always precariously sat in the academy but we need this program (and more). WKUโ€™s program has trained some of the best folklorists I know and every folklorist has a stake in its continued existence.

My alma mater @WKU Folk Studies is losing support & may have to be suspended. @WKU & @WKUPcal this program is a leader in our field,& so important especially now when work to understand & support tradition & cultural expression in both public and academic settings is critical

"In the end what counts is offering one's own work as it develops over time as an example of what anthropology is or can be. Each of us, as anthropologists, develops a highly personalized vision of the discipline, and that diversity weaves the fabric of anthropology."

What if we were more candid about this, that one writing movingly aims to cast a spell, that "spellbinding" is more than a metaphor meant for back-cover blurbs, that there is in fact something uncanny, possessive, even world-bending, in the power of limpid prose?

I'm very excited about #afsam20 and hoping I have the mental capacity to pay attention, live tweet, and do all the stuff I'm supposed to do in the normal course of the week.

I know many academics have wondered what kinds of things they could do as a department to go beyond toothless statements in support of diversity. These folks at the OII have put together a marvelously extensive list here: docs.google.com/document/d/1โ€ฆ

Now that aspiring anti-racist academics are learning they should cite BIPOC scholars, especially women, please note itโ€™s not just WHO you cite but HOW you citeโ€”are BIPOC authors regarded as theorists or just case studies demonstrating the validity of white theoristsโ€™ concepts? โ€“ at Los Angeles, CA
