Glenn Shepard, the ethnology curator at the Goeldi Museum in Belém do Pará, Brazil presents on work by Kayapo communities who use their warrior image and outside power symbols to address—via film and new media approaches— cultural appropriation and to combat the rise of mining and logging projects on Indigenous lands. • This talk was presented remotely as part of the 2019-2020 Creative Thought Forum. SAR’s third annual Creative Thought Forum series invites members and the public to explore our understanding of where humanity is going in a new age of technological and cultural shifts under the thematic umbrella of “The Future of Work,” through lectures and conversation-style salons. • Learn more about the series: https://sarweb.org/creative-thought-f... • ___ • About the School for Advanced Research (SAR): Founded in 1907, the School for Advanced Research (SAR) is one of North America’s preeminent independent institutes for the study of anthropology, related social sciences and humanities.
