In addition to the online petition from a student at UPenn, there is now an open letter regarding Robert Schuyler's actions, written by @ayushi_nayak, @archaeoliz, and @MelinaSeabrook, that needs signatories. Please do so, and share it widely!

Petition calling for the firing of Robert Schuyler from UPenn for his shameful acts at an archaeology conference last week, where he used a Nazi salute & phrase to intimidate a junior academic woman when she tried reclaiming the time he took from her. chng.it/9hNKkJSmft

Hello #AnthroTwitter I'm excited to share with you the next round of #AnthroIllustrated drawings, made in conjunction with inst @ art.bircan, @anthro_outlier & the AI team- for fair use purposes in your #STEM lectures. anthroillustrated.com

@queerlybeloveds @global_landuse @DrKillgrove You're welcome! Just wanted to make sure!

@PopAnthro @global_landuse @DrKillgrove Thank you for letting me know! 💜 It’s me, and I don’t mind if people really wanna find out my last name. 😂

@queerlybeloveds @global_landuse @DrKillgrove Not able to send you a DM, but wanted to let you know the name of the email recipient is not properly obscured.

@global_landuse @DrKillgrove He’s still defending himself. No apologies; just justification that being told to hold his questions is JUUUUST like genocide. How do you remedy this without firing him???

@this13itch @ayushi_nayak There is an abundance of video and photo evidence. Please do not lie.

Fellow archaeologists (and others, if you feel comfortable), please add your voice to condemn Robert Schuyler’s despicable behaviour which included shouting down an ECR woman and doing what appears to be a Nazi salute on camera. To say I’m disgusted and outraged would be (1/3)

@sharksandwrecks @archaeoliz Yes, was about to ask the same!

I really appreciate the support I'm getting from people from all corners of my field, and I want everyone to know that I am okay and I have been moving forward with grievance processes with various institutions.

@UPennAnth professor Robert Schuyler blatantly attempted to intimidate and silence a junior academic woman at a conference with a Nazi salute. Archaeology does *not* need Robert Schuyler. It needs less people like him. Preferably none.

@mwesch (meant to tag in the initial tweet!)

For anyone who might be looking for a free Intro Cultural Anthropology textbook to use in their own class or would just be interested in reading it themselves, this was posted by Dr. Michael Wesch in the Teaching College Anthropology FB group! anth101.com/book/?fbclid=I…

I have (to my surprise) recently surpassed 1,000 followers! Since many of you found me because of my work on disability in ancient Greece, I want to make a little introduction. I am a classicist and an archaeologist and I do study disability in ancient Greece. /cont.

Important point here. Archaeology has such a mess right inside its own house with how many Indigenous remains that NEED to be looked at so that they can be returned to their places and people. twitter.com/nmj428/status/…

Important message here for anyone considering going into archaeology but is concerned about "needing" to do field work. As Dr. Wolff says, "Collections research is archaeology!"

Policing "proper" English is classist and, given that it's aimed so often at Black folks, it's deeply racist, too.

@BrianaPobiner @MarcKissel

Ummm... nope, nope, nope, and nope. (h/t @MarcKissel)

Important open letter condemning University Press of Florida's decision to publish a book called "Repatriation and Erasing the Past", by Elizabeth Weiss and James W. Springer, wherein the authors romanticise anthropology's more explicitly racist past. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Hey archaeology twitter, help me out here. One of our field school students from 2019 is now working in CRM. As a woman of color she is struggling with the lack of diversity on her crews. Based on my Twitter feed, she isn't alone and she could use some of your support. 1/
