-Algunas personas cuando ven que investigo y promuevo interés por #Quechua y las culturas andinas: “¡Qué bonito, me encanta, Cusquito! 🎉🥰
-Personas al ver que tb va conectado con reconocer prejuicios internos/racismo y escuchar otras perspectivas: “¿Por qué tanto odio?” 😱🔥😡

The fact that majority of recent deaths (+20) due to #Peru’s state violence happened in Ayacucho and Apurímac, regions with high percentage of #Quechua speakers (62%/70% respectively),makes Dina Boluarte's public use of this Indigenous Language, a superficial instrumentalization.

My latest project, where I steal #WernerHerzog and #Zizek's voices and have them converse endlessly.
Funny? Creepy? Inspiring? Unethical? You decide. I certainly enjoyed working on it.

How many senses are there? Aristotle said five. A tour of the animal kingdom suggests at least a dozen more. But could there be, at bottom, just two?
Just one of the questions from our latest episode, w/ @edyong209, about 'An Immense World.'

La maginalización histórica (pobreza, pésimos servicios estatales) causa y permite que facciones o líderes en algunas comunidades tengan argumentos para convencer a las asambleas de aceptar la minería ilegal. Los mineros ilegales son mestizos e instrumentalizan la pobreza.
👉 En esta #ColumnaOP, el antropólogo Rodrigo Lazo explica las motivaciones detrás del apoyo de varias comunidades awajún a la minería ilegal en el río Cenepa, en la frontera de Perú 🇵🇪 y Ecuador 🇪🇨.

New episode!! 📣📣
A conversation with @xygalatas about his new book. Humans in all societies regularly perform acts that are rigid, repetitive, and of no obvious use. What draws us to these rituals? And why do we take them to such extremes?
