As an anthropology professor hoping to invite my students to see and fully immerse themselves in the world, I fell in love with the story of Walter Mitty. I even adopted the Life motto from the movie as the "Student Learning Outcomes" for my Cultural Anthropology Class: To see the world, things dangerous to come to, to see behind walls, to draw closer, to find each other, and to feel ... that i...

The most important things I learned from 20 years of anthropological fieldwork
zhlédnutí 11KPřed 2 lety
Over the past 20 years I have been doing fieldwork in a remote village in Papua New Guinea. The people there have become the dearest people in my life, and have completely transformed me. We often worry about the impact of the West on other cultures. Sometimes it works the other way around. As I learned their culture it was as if the whole ethos of their culture started to course through my vei...

    It has been said that the original or shall I say ancient Yorubans didn’t sacrifice animals . Animals were regarded as sacred. It’s when people branch off and create their own religions or cultures they incorporate what would be new ideas or practices. We must always be aware of these things a it takes us bad to the Laws of Polarity.

    Born and raised in Kansas City Missouri, I know all to well of these invisible walls. Born in 1965, I can clearly remember my childhood starting at the age of 3. We lived off of 30th and prospect, very tough times for black families. No blacks were allowed to go past a certain area during the 60s, as time went on and Kansas City developed, my parents finally got descent paying jobs, and by 1977,we finally moved south to 68th and terrace by this time the so called suburbs were starting to develop like Grandview, overland Park and such, the white families were moving that way giving way to black families with good or semi good jobs to relocate their families to better living conditions. I can remember moving out south as we called it being one of the first five black families in that neighborhood. To our surprise all the white families still living there were very friendly and welcoming. But as time went by and development progressed further south and west the white families moved of causing decline of jobs in the area. All in all things were good for myself and my family. But it is now 2024 and the neighborhood I remember is long gone. This document really tells the truth about the invisible walls created by rich white men, so I can definitely relate.. any one reading this thank you for taking the time. Kansas City has some very dark secrets and those of us who grew up here in the 60s and so on know all to well what is hidden in plane sight. 💯💪🏾

    Tricks to make the body secrete feel good chemicals which help bond the participants together as a 'family'. the things that induce the chemical response are deemed sacred culture and are refined and added to over time. In our culture these tricks are used in advertising.

    God bless these people. I watched documentaries on these tribes like a decade ago. They were constantly at war, constant famine, the men would smoke cigarettes while the women literally did ALL the work. Thank God that his Word and Spirit was able to come to these people and help them. I feel so bad that the guy making this video hasn't "figured it out" yet. He doesn't look young. Eternity is a long time, and too much is at stake to be playing this..... "All spiritualities, one mountain different paths, new agey" bull crap

    I've been familiar with Yoruba for years and was so excited when Beyonce came out with Lemonade. I love learning about new things and other ways to live! As an ISangoma Priestess, I highly recommend that people open their minds and broaden their perspectives!!! You don't have to follow anything you're not comfortable with, but don't demonize it just because you don't know anything about it. Research and be open to other ways of living! I love this 🥰
