Today we have Dr. Ayana Omilade Flewellen, an assistant Professor of Anthropology at Stanford University, on the podcast. Dr. Flewellen is a Black, non-binary, feminist, archaeologist, who works with collections originating from the African diaspora, and focuses on small finds and the extraordinary stories those items tell. They work at plantation archaeological sites as well as underwater sites of slave shipwrecks.  We begin by discussing their background in anthropology starting with their undergrad at the University of Florida and their first anthropology class there. From that first cultural anthropology class they were hooked, and their second class in Anthro was a class cross listed class with the African Studies department called “Archaeology of African American Life and History” taught by Dr. James Davidson. Ayana speaks about the profound impact this class on their archeological journey and the uniqueness of the subject matter that allowed Ayana to see themselves in archaeology. This class, and Dr. Davidson, would end up shaping Ayana's subsequent career in archaeology. Next, we discuss their first field school at Kingsley Plantation on Fort George Island, working with Dr. Davidson. We then speak about their favorite class to teach as a Professor called, A Will to Adorn: an anthropology of dress. Ayana describes this class as an ode to Zora Neal Hurston, and her piece where she described characteristics of negro expression and their “will to adorn.” Then we dive into their PhD research which examined small finds in a collection from the Levi-Jordan plantation. Ayana describes passionately the value in small finds being able to tell extraordinary stories. Lastly, we talk about their ongoing project at the Princess Plantation and the importance of community based archaeology projects. Check out Ayana's other amazing work here: https://www.ayanaflewellen.com/ Princess Plantation Project: https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/a69f20809be64ed8aef1b7329c5dbd5e https://divingwithapurpose.org/ Check out the amazing Society of Black Archaeologists: https://www.societyofblackarchaeologists.com/ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/gabby-campbell1/support

Part 2 - The Society of Black Archaeologists (SBA) was founded in 2011 with the vision of creating a strong network of advocates to ensure the proper treatment of African and African diaspora material culture and to encourage more people of African descent to enter the field. Founding members Dr. Ayana Omilade Flewellen and Dr. Justin Dunnavant, join Neville James in the studio with Dr. William White and graduate student Benjamin Siegel to share their stories, the space they've created, and what they have been doing here on St. Croix. For more information or to connect with the Society of Black Archaeologists: https://www.societyofblackarchaeologists.com/. 

Welcome to Feedback with EarBuds, the podcast recommendation podcast. Our newsletter brings you five podcast recommendations each week according to a theme, and curated by a different person. Our podcast is an audio version of the newsletter. Subscribe to the newsletter: eepurl.com/cIcBuH This week's theme is Rewriting Black and Indigenous Histories. The curator is Chip Colwell, editor-in-chief of the SAPIENS magazine and executive producer of SAPIENS: A Podcast For Everything Human.Why did Chip choose this theme? "In the months following George Floyd's murder, the magazine and podcast I work on, SAPIENS, started a collaboration with the Society of Black Archaeologists and the Indigenous Archaeology Collective. This work culminated in a special season 4, which tells the stories of a new generation of Black and Indigenous archaeologists who are changing the way we think about history — and our future. During this effort, we learned that so many podcasters are part of a movement to rewrite and reimagine the events and people who made us who we are!” This episode is brought to you in part by Focusrite:Podcasting can be full of daunting concepts like gain staging and signal chains and waveform degrundulating (did you notice that we made that last one up?)

In this weekend edition: Archeology and the discovery of artifacts is, in essence, history you can touch. And that's part of what Ayana Omilade Flewellen says they find the most fascinating. The UC Riverside anthropology professor's research has led them from plantations in the American south, to the sunken wreckage of ships from the transatlantic slave trade. But they are also working to engage and inspire a new generation of Black archeologists through their work, in a field that is overwhelmingly white.  AirTalk's Larry Mantle spoke with Flewellen about their personal journey as an archaeologist, the work to increase diversity in archaeology, and why it's so important now to understand how our past informs our present.  This program is made possible in part by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, a private corporation funded by the American people.   Support the show: https://laist.com

On today's podcast Jessica interviews Dr. Ayana Omilade Flewellen (they/she), Assistant Professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of California, Riverside. Through Dr. Flewellen's work in historical archaeology of the African Diaspora focusing on the era of Enslavement and post-emancipation, we talk about how the way people, in this case Black women, dress and adorn themselves and how those practices are shaped by larger factors, including racism and sexism.

On today's podcast Jessica interviews Dr. Ayana Omilade Flewellen (they/she), Assistant Professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of California, Riverside. Through Dr. Flewellen's work in historical archaeology of the African Diaspora focusing on the era of Enslavement and post-emancipation, we talk about how the way people, in this case Black women, dress and adorn themselves and how those practices are shaped by larger factors, including racism and sexism. We also dive into the work of the Society of Black Archaeologists and Diving With a Purpose to tell a larger story of Black history in the field of Anthropology and to the general public, as well as to provide opportunities for the next generation of Black scholars and maritime archaeologists.

Welcome to another episode of the Esoteric Negro!! This week our guest is Dr Peggy Brunache, a Haitian American archaeologist, lecturer, culinary consultant, and foodways specialist. Dr. Brunache grew up in Miami, Florida, and is the daughter of Caribbean immigrant parents from Haiti. Peggy found Anthropology at University, and later went on to earn her masters degree at the University of South Carolina at Columbia after having worked in cultural resource management for almost a decade. She then went on to gain her PhD from the University of Texas, where she focused her thesis on the narratives of enslaved women within Habitation La Mahaudière, Guadeloupe, Caribbean. Dr Brunache now lives in Scotland, and lectures on the History of Atlantic Slavery at the University of Glasgow. She is also a prominent member of the SBA (Society for Black Archaeologists). This was the focus of this week's episode as we discussed the experience of international travel and the cultural differences of dealing with race as a Caribbean-American woman in the U.K. From establishing new roots, to the restriction places upon her as an international travel into her new home country, our conversation with Dr. Brenache was enlightening as it much as it was informative to her unique experience. We hope you enjoy this episode and again we thank you for your support!

Our intention for this episode was to close out the season with another summertime related topic. As with the summer closer for season one, Wish You Were Here, where we talked the archaeology of Florida's tourist industry and we recorded the episode from Weeki Wachee Springs, we had hoped to bring another light-hearted and summertime related podcast. However, because of the state of life at the moment, we didn't feel it would be appropriate to have that conversation. We will have that conversation later and we have a great guest interview already recorded and ready to go.   That being said… Our focus for the entirety of Season 3 of the Materialists Podcast will be on the material culture of race. It is a heavy and complex topic but we hope to bring diverse voices to each episode and do our best to explain the role archaeologists can play in the conversation.

Most historical accounts of slavery were written by colonists and planters. Researchers are now using the tools of archaeology to learn more about the day-to-day lives of enslaved Africans—how they survived the conditions of slavery, how they participated in local economies, and how they maintained their own agency. Host Sarah Crespi talks with Contributing Correspondent Lizzie Wade about a Caribbean archaeology project based on St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands and launched by the founders of the Society for Black Archaeologists that aims to unearth these details. Watch a related video here. Sarah also talks with Jonathan Schulz, a professor in the Department of Economics at George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia, about a role for the medieval Roman Catholic Church in so-called WEIRD psychology—western, educated, industrialized, rich, democratic. The bulk of psychology experiments have used participants that could be described as WEIRD, and according to many psychological measures, WEIRD subjects tend to have some extreme traits, like a stronger tendency toward individuality and more friendliness with strangers. Schulz and colleagues used historical maps and measures of kinship structure to tie these traits to strict marriage rules enforced by the medieval Catholic Church in Western Europe.

The 2018 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology took place in New Orleans at the beginning of January. Bill White was there and he brings on two coleagues, Dr. Ayana Flewellen and Dr. Justin Dunnavant. They talk about their takeaways from the conference. Bill, Ayana, and Justin also talk about their work in St. Croix over the winter and about working in an area deeply affected by hurricanes and a lack of people to do preservation work. However, they mention that people on the island are working in their own communities to preserve there history.
