Tuesday, November 11, 6:00-7:30 p.m. Join us for a conversation with Noga Arikha about her new biography of Franz Boas: In Praise of Open Minds. This event aims to introduce Boas's ideas, outline their genesis in Germany, their impact in the US and beyond - and their continuing relevance today. This accessible intellectual biography traces Boasâs life and scientific passions, from his roots in Germany and his move to the United States in 1884, partly in response to growing antisemitism in Germany, to his work with First Nations communities and his influential role as a teacher, mentor, and engaged activist who inspired an entire generation. https://histanthro.org/news/announcements/new-book-talk-franz-boas/?utm_source=bluesky&utm_medium=jetpack_social
