It's been ages since we last checked in! Here's a few highlights from recent months at The Familiar Strange Podcast & Blog: 1. Thought-provoking article about racism in sport and why it's so difficult for us to label racism for what it is - by our own Kylie Wong Dolan https://thefamiliarstrange.com/2019/10/07/our-australian-rules/ 2. Inspiring podcast interview with Professor of Quantum Cybernetics Elanor Huntington on why STEM needs anthropology - interview by our own Ian Pollock https://thefamiliarstrange.com/2019/09/16/ep-46-elanor-huntington/ 3. Interesting article framing university restructures as a source of trauma, by our resident anthropologist of academia, Dr Jodie Trembath https://thefamiliarstrange.com/2019/09/23/is-trauma-too-strong-a-word/ 4. We launched a gratitude campaign in our Facebook group, The Familiar Strange Chats -- we go live in the group once every 2 weeks to award the best comment of that fortnight a $10AUD gift voucher to say thanks for engaging.
