    13. More Assumptions About Postmodern and Critical Theory with Sam Hoadley-Brill Part 2

    In this video, Bryant and Will talk with Sam Hoadley-Brill, a philosophy PhD student at CUNY. This is the second chat with Sam where we’ve discussed topics surrounding the public representations of postmodernism and critical race theory. The conversation starts with addressing interesting comments that viewers have issued about the very legitimate criticisms that people like James Lindsay and Jordan Peterson issue against postmodern and critical theoretical thought. In addition to providing some interesting updates since the last conversation, this conversation touches on topics surrounding public intellectuals, ‘real world’ concerns, and the kinds of conversations that might be more conducive to discussing these controversial topics. -------------------------------- Sam Hoadley-Brill https://twitter.com/deonteleologist?lang=en https://gc-cuny.academia.edu/SHoadleyBrill https://philpeople.org/profiles/samuel-hoadley-brill Sam's Conceptual Disinformation Substack https://conceptualdisinformation.substack.com/ -------------------------------- We're at http://www.apartialperspective.com/ Visit us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram @TheAnthroPerspective & @APartialPerspective Facebook: https://goo.gl/qGfff6 Twitter: https://goo.gl/8JhikZ Instagram: https://goo.gl/gcK6mZ Tags: michel foucault, cynical theories book, cynical theories helen pluckrose, cynical theories james lindsay, cynical theories book review, jordan peterson postmodernism, james lindsay social justice, james lindsay peter boghossian helen, sam hoadley-brill cynical theories, derrida philosophy, social justice theory, feminist scholars, postmodernism steven pinker, jordan peterson, jordan peterson 12 rules for life, michel foucault power, sokal squared, grievance studies affair

    11. How James Lindsay and Jordan Peterson Misrepresent Postmodern Philosophy with Sam Hoadley Brill

    #11 | How James Lindsay and Jordan Peterson Misrepresent Postmodern Philosophy with Sam Hoadley Brill In this episode, I discuss so-called "Cynical Theories" as discussed by public figures like James Lindsay and Jordan Peterson with PhD philosophy student Sam Hoadley-Brill. We discuss Foucault, Derrida, and other postmodern and deconstruction scholars, and the ways these public debates fall short of making promising critiques of philosophical arguments. ------------------------ Sam Hoadley-Brill https://twitter.com/deonteleologist?lang=en https://gc-cuny.academia.edu/SHoadleyBrill https://philpeople.org/profiles/samuel-hoadley-brill Cynical Theories Book Review https://www.liberalcurrents.com/the-cynical-theorists-behind-cynical-theories/ ------------------------ We're at http://www.apartialperspective.com/ Visit us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram @TheAnthroPerspective & @APartialPerspective Facebook: https://goo.gl/qGfff6 Twitter: https://goo.gl/8JhikZ Instagram: https://goo.gl/gcK6mZ Tags: michel foucault, cynical theories book, cynical theories helen pluckrose, cynical theories james lindsay, cynical theories book review, jordan peterson postmodernism, james lindsay social justice, james lindsay peter boghossian helen, sam hoadley-brill cynical theories, derrida philosophy, social justice theory, feminist scholars, postmodernism steven pinker, jordan peterson, jordan peterson 12 rules for life, michel foucault power, sokal squared, grievance studies affair

    10. Are Men Animals? Defining Masculinity and Gender with Dr Matthew Gutmann

    #10 | Are Men Animals? Defining Masculinity and Gender with Dr Matthew Gutmann In this episode, I discuss masculinity with Dr Matthew Gutmann—Professor of Anthropology at Brown University. We discuss the themes he talks about in his latest book: Are Men Animals? How Modern Masculinity Sells Men Short. One main point he makes is that there is a diversity of masculinities in all times and places, and turning to biological explanations falls short of actually understanding the roots of the behavioral dimensions of gender. ------------------------------ Matthew Gutmann Website https://brown.academia.edu/MatthewGutmann Are Men Animals?

    9. Addiction and Biocultural Feedback Loops with Neuroanthropologist Dr Daniel Lende

    #9 | Addiction and Biocultural Feedback Loops with Neuroanthropologist Dr Daniel Lende In this episode, I discuss the roots of addiction from a neuroanthropological perspective with Dr Daniel Lende—an Anthropology Professor at the University of South Florida. We discuss his research on addiction, and his attempts to bridge ethnographic data with neuroscience in order to understand the biocultural feedback loop that lies at the heart of addiction. Also discussed are American notions of gender, and how social media has comes to influence so much of our lives. ------------------------------------ Neuroanthropology blog https://neuroanthropology.net/ Anthro in the Everyday instagram https://www.instagram.com/anthrointheeveryday/?hl=en ------------------------------------ Dr. Daniel Lende Associate Professor of Anthropology University of South Florida Department of Anthropology dlende@usf.edu ------------------------------------ We're at http://www.apartialperspective.com/ Visit us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram @TheAnthroPerspective & @APartialPerspective Facebook: https://goo.gl/qGfff6 Twitter: https://goo.gl/8JhikZ Instagram: https://goo.gl/gcK6mZ Keywords: neuroanthropology, daniel lende, university of south florida, anthropology, biocultural anthropology, biological anthropology, neuroscience, applied anthropology, neuroanthropology and the encultured brain, brain and culture

    6. Dr Kristina Baines on Cool Anthropology, and the Use of Embodied Ecological Heritage

    Season 1 Episode 6: Dr Kristina Baines on Cool Anthropology, and the Use of Embodied Ecological Heritage Recorded July 2, 2020 This next episode is with Dr Kristina Baines, Assistant Professor of Anthropology at City University of New York, at Guttman Community College. She is also an affiliated faculty at CUNY Graduate School of Public Health. In this conversation, we discuss her Anthropological perspective, including a framework she’s developed in her career called Embodied Ecological Heritage, which links everyday health with the heritage practices that take place in specific ecologies. We also discuss the several collaborative projects that she has going on at Cool Anthropology: a website she cofounded with her wife, Victoria Costa, which hosts a series of collaborative projects. We touch on a couple of them, including their Shifting Stereotypes Project, which is an interactive documentary that is set to release soon. We also talk about the Ethnography Matters Project, which can be thought of as a collaborative discussion about the use of ethnographic methods for all purposes, for people everywhere. The conversation starts with discussing how she applies an anthropological definition of health, especially right now during COVID-19. ----------------------------- Coo.

    5. Dr Sarah Willen on the Pandemic Journaling Project & Linking Migrant Health and Dignity in Israel

    Season 1 Episode 5: Dr Sarah Willen on the Pandemic Journaling Project & Linking Migrant Health and Dignity in Israel Recorded June 11, 2020 This next episode is with Dr Sarah Willen (https://twitter.com/sarahwillen), a Professor of Anthropology at the University of Connecticut. She’s authored several articles and books in her career, and we touch on some of them, including her latest ethnography published last year, Fighting for Dignity: Migrant Lives at Israel’s Margins, which philosophically centers dignity in her research in order to understand notions of vulnerability, illegality, and inequity for the various narratives she captures concerning migrants who settle in Israel from all over the world, such as from regions like South America, Southeast Asia, and Western Africa. At the start of the conversation, we discuss COVID-19, including the new Pandemic Journaling Project that she created together with Kate Mason at Brown University, along with an interdisciplinary team of students and faculty at UConn, Brown, and Trinity College. The Pandemic Journaling Project was launched on May 29th and aims to document people’s experiences with COVID-19 in order to contribute to our historical understanding of what has happened during this time. You can contribute in English or Spanish, by writing, or even using audio and photo, and you can even securely download your journals. This is a great project that professors have found instructive having their students contribute to, as you’ll hear from next week‘s guest, Dr Kristina Baines at City University of New York. The project is scheduled to last as long as COVID-19 does, which seems to be the foreseeable future. ------------------------------- The Pandemic Journaling Project https://pandemic-journaling-project.chip.uconn.edu/ https://www.pandemicjournalingproject.org/ ------------------------------- Sarah S.
