Anthropology for Kids

A project from Nika Dubrovsky and David Graeber, Anthropology for Kids delivers important content in an accessible way to a wide-ranging audience. An awesome collection of resources.

“Anthropology For Kids was invented to share the knowledge and opinions between experts and non-experts about the diversity of human life in the past, today, and tomorrow. The project provides (self-)educational materials, participatory frameworks and non-hierarchical production of knowledge and shared understanding that is designed to be accessible to people – children, their parents, and anybody else – from all backgrounds.”

Native Land Digital

Native Land Digital is an incredible resource:

“Native Land is a tool that maps out Indigenous territories,
treaties, and languages. […] It is meant to encourage education and engagement on topics of Indigenous land—particularly, where you are
located.


Native Land brings about discussions of colonization, land
rights, language, and Indigenous history tied to our personal
histories. We hope this guide makes you, the reader, want to
know about the land you live on.”
