new directions in anthropology from the perspective of the best young
anthropologists. We seek a plurality of voices from all subfields in each

explore how anthropological skills, ideas, and ethnography can have an
impact on contemporary social issues.

public issues, social problems, and global realities. These submissions

(10-minute maximum in duration + 1,000 words of commentary in length).
