Anthropology, Science, and Human Rights Activism for AGBTS

Abstract

In this presentation, I share a bit about me and how my identity has influenced my career as an anthropological scientist and my activism. I define anthropology and describe how anthropologists are engaged in activism and I demonstrate how we can use science to inform our decisions. I conclude by showing how anthropology and science have led to policies and practices that limit the rights of certain people and why inclusion matters.
