우영우 변호사가 아직도 ‘이상해’ 보이나?

그린커 교수(사진)는 정신질환, 그중에서도 자폐증에 대한 낙인의 역학을 연구하는 인류학자다. 오랜 연구를 집대성해 〈정상은 없다〉를 냈다. 그는 인터뷰에서 〈이상한 변호사 우영우〉를 자주 언급했다.

Took several years and committees to determine that the word "colonial" today more strongly evokes subordination and violence than late 18th century American revolutionaries fighting for independence from England msn.com/en-us/news/us/george…

Senator Lana Theis accused me by name of grooming and sexualizing children in an attempt to marginalize me for standing up against her marginalizing the LGBTQ community...in a fundraising email, for herself. Hate wins when people like me stand by and let it happen. I won't.

We have lost one of the most important voices in international public health and #anthropology #PaulFarmer showed us that one person can be a scientist and an activist, a scholar and a champion for human rights. nytimes.com/2022/02/21/obitu…

Paul Farmer, Pioneer of Global Health, Dies at 62 (Published 2022)

As a medical student, Dr. Farmer decided to build a clinic in Haiti. It grew into a vast network serving some of the world’s poorest communities.
