Exploring the Ethics in Experimental Archaeology - Ep 73

On today’s episode, we have a panel talking about the ethics of experimental archaeology and specifically on their work together around the digitization of the Crabtree Lithic Technology Collection. We talk about why the Indigenous Advisory board members wanted to be part of these efforts, overarching ethics in experimental archaeology, and what this project is trying to do to address those ethical issues. Finally, we talk about the future of this project and how this project helps bridge the gap to where they’d like to see the fields of anthropology and collections get to in the future.

Working with Indigenous Communities in the Philippines - Ep 72

On today's episode, Jessica speaks with Dr. Oona Paredes, Associate Professor of Southeast Asian Studies in the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures at UCLA. Oona discusses her understanding of Indigenous Peoples growing up in the Philippines and how her work with the Higaunon Lumad of northern Mindanao has directly challenged those early beliefs. She also describes how Western concept of Indigeneity doesn’t cleanly fit in the context of Southeast Asia. She discusses how she and the the Higaunon Lumad communities she works with have jointly shaped their work together and her vision for this work moving forward.

Black Cemeteries - Ep 70

On today's episode, Jessica hosts a conversation with Dr. Antoinette Jackson and Delande Justinavil about Black cemeteries. We talk about their work and how their efforts fit into larger efforts to learn more about and protect Black cemeteries. We talk about the importance of using a variety of methods and disciplines to understand this important topic, as well as the necessity of including living people and art to inform this work and speak to the general public. The discussion includes the importance of reframing away from the idea of Black cemeteries as “abandoned” and the many layered efforts necessary to protect Black cemeteries holistically.
