Amazing to hear a great thought about applied anthropology. The 3C principles - Context->Conditions->Choices explain a lot and connect quiet well with social, political, and even judicial understandings.
I identify with this. I was born this way. I believe the unbelievable. I go against the grain of society. I feel like I have learnt back to front. I care a lot about people and want to change the world. It feels normal to me. I want education that enhances children. Getting something wrong is not a failure but rather a learning curb. I could go on forever. 🙂
House and housing and rooms and pie charts and layers of confluence. Choices and needs… and ducks quaking and looking like but aren’t ducks… a seal and a goose…. Neural diversity and pieces of puzzles. Just ugh… sometimes it’s exhausting… but it’s also so very needed.
I live in cultural diverstiy. I work in a nursery in Scotland. We have 20 children, not all at the some time, and there are from 16 or 17 different countries. Im learning English in this work, and to singing lullaby songs in gaelic. Most of the children, 2 Years old were born in their countries so we have different native languages: arabic, rupu, hungarian, turkish, romanian, arabic, urdu, scot, tagalog, cantonese, mandarin. I love saying hello in to them in their languages. And I sing lullaby songs in French and Spanish too
We have refugges from Siria, immigrants, scottish families where the parents are fightinh addictions, muslim families, a gothic family, even we have a daddy who is a prince of tribu in África and a refuggee here.
@@Ssaidak That sounds like an amazing place to work. I bet it's such a rich and rewarding job to see how wonderfully different, and yet, also, how similar everyone is.
Sociology and cultural anthropology have a lot to say… if we think about geographies and overlays. UNC… Boston, PA, Florida…. On and on. American (Nacirema)…. Mirrors and influence. Carpentry… “Witness” and “Die Hard”…. Heroism and imperfections and yet better… seeds… butterflies, agile and waterfall. The dystopian process… of imagining and reimagining. The contexts and definitions. Seeking perfection while it is impossible… yet better is needed and real. Think of leadership and lenses of skills needed and or usury experience of projections And anger… layers and concepts of linear and complexity… reactions and needs of empathy and also… meeting moments of long standing entrenched dysfunctional process…. The economists And naive cynicism which also has very real points to consider…. The large data sets… and needs. In quiet moments of understanding the scatter charts scatter, yet here we all are… context matters. The mediocrity of groups yet… our brains wired and connected. It’s a lot… family and honesty and over reach of fear… the better is workable.
Context: a closeted man from Portland Conditions: working a government job in the Marxist field of academic racism Choice: give a Tedx talk on diversity, obs😂
Context: cultural system you're born eg religion, dialects, making sense of time, and time born in history. Condition: Specific place in society with things like your home, your gender, your class status, and this is "your house of your own experiences" basically how people make sense of the world. Choices: the choices others make are influenced by context and condition. His talk was in depth enough so you can try it out. He also gave examples on how you can try it out.
