Eps 1: Black lives matter economic anthropology
"Operation Ghetto Storm," a 2013 report published by the Malcolm X Grassroots Movement (MXGM), presents evidence of 313 killings of Black people by state-sanctioned actors during the preceding year.
As "Operation Ghetto Storm" makes clear, anthropologists should consider how anti-Blackness and the analysis emerging from Black resistance present a critique of anthropology.
A cursory examination of what protesters have been saying reveals widespread concern not only for Black lives, but also for Black bodies.
