It's Election Day, of course, but it's also officially my Book Release Day! It's available for purchase and also free open access download in various formats. Spread the good news! #anthrorepro #AnthroTwitter #book luminosoa.org/site/books/m/1…

@dansouleles I started reading it yesterday, loving it so far. And congrats on tenure, whenever that happened!

I'm never sure how many folks are still on here, but I just published an article I'm pretty happy with: journals.uchicago.edu/doi/abs/10.108…

@siobhanmattison @TBlumenfield We’ll send you a copy when we can! We haven’t gotten any final copies yet, either.

‘Labour of Love’ installation, 2022, a visual depiction of the 650 times artist Sarah Maple fed her baby over three months to highlight the sheer volume of work that is expected of mothers and to challenge people to rethink the value of the time spent #WomensArt

@kelizaw @DukeGHI @harrissolomon @elimrogers Congrats! Very exciting!

Beyond thrilled to announce that I'll be joining Duke University's Global Health Institute @DukeGHI as a postdoctoral associate, where I'll be working with @harrissolomon, @elimrogers, and others to create the brand new Initiative in Global Social Medicine and Health Humanities.

@NJKenworthy Yay! Congrats!

🎉🎉It's finally pub day for my book, Crowded Out! 🎉🎉 I wrote this book to help people understand what crowdfunding for healthcare is really like, but also to help us all imagine better ways to care for each other and build just health futures. penguinrandomhouse.com/books/744353/c…

Tired of citing creeps? Want a venue for cutting edge social theory? Look no further! Economic Anthropology invites submissions to New Directions, a peer-reviewed forum for expanding citation chains: econanthro.org/publications/t…

@raulpacheco @ucpress Yes! It’s an amazing platform for OA books. I’m working on a blog post that will hopefully be up with UC Press sometime soon about my experience publishing OA!

#TodayILearned that @AdrienneStrong and other authors' books are #Free2DownloadAndRead through the @ucpress Lumina platform. And there's like a metric tonne of book-length ethnographies available there.

HIND’S HALL. Once it’s up on streaming all proceeds to UNRWA.

@raulpacheco @VerbiSoftware I would just make different folders for each different group and code all in the same project. Then when doing broader analysis you could just activate one set of docs or 2, for example, if you want to compare across groups

In @VerbiSoftware 's MAXQDA, if I want to analyse four different types of communities' interviews using the same codebook, can I merge datasets or do I analyse each one as a different project and then merge projects? For example, "welders", "nurses", "bankers", "drivers".

@eyatesd I don't think it has done anything for getting a job for me but surely has helped with publishing ops and 100% important for identifying tenure letter writers. Plus just connection with ppl who make my academic life better!

@scott_a_ross Woooow

WashU has suspended the students involved in this anti-Boeing, anti-genocide direct action, and banned the non-students (inc alumni) from campus.

@raulpacheco A couple I see from my students, how to organize your data into a narrative and how to decide on an order of that info. And how to use secondary sources to help support analysis of primary data. Often the data is plopped in and left hanging

If you're writing a thesis or dissertation, please (if you can) share which are the main challenges you face. I'd like to blog more about how to face these and it'd help me focus my writing if I hear first-hand from those who are in the process of writing their theses.

@Diane_Tober @ProfessaJay Last time I had a class do a written quiz they were shocked and some didn't even have writing implements but I'm ready to bring the blue books back for sure!!

@ProfessaJay Wait until I bring back Blue Books so they don't use ChatGPT for their exams.

@ievaju We have journal that grad students from our dept run (legitimate journal) that is often looking for submissions and undergrads would have a good shot New Florida Journal of Anthropology

Do any anthropology journals publish research articles submitted by undergraduate students?

@raulpacheco Amazing!! Thank you!!

COLLABORATIVE ETHNOGRAPHY (a partial, commented bibliography): drive.google.com/file/d/1kisQuJ… I created this bibliography in response to a request by @AdrienneStrong

@raulpacheco @BeckyGMartinez I did in the very beginning, until I knew that hospital ethnography was a category that existed. I think I now self identify more as a hospital ethnographer

Those of you who do hospital ethnography... do you consider yourselves organizational ethnographers, primarily? Whereby your organization is a hospital? @AdrienneStrong @BeckyGMartinez (and whoever else does hospital ethnography)

@raulpacheco Hopefully we reward you in love and appreciation because we certainly should! I point students to your blog very often and have found your bibs helpful resources!

I create and share multiple resources for free because I like helping people. I get absolutely zero reward for this (no, my institution doesn't reward me, neither does the Mexican National Researchers' System, nor do I get economic compensation).

Call for applications (due June 1st)! Dissertation Grant offers $2k to an ABD student from any subfield of Anthro, whose diss uses a feminist analytic lens, or centers feminist anthro theory or methods.  Contact @MythriJega mjegathesan@scu.edu with questions #anthrotwitter

@11thThesis Crumpled paper boat isn’t a monograph but it has some excellent examples of different styles of ethnographic writing including poetry
