#Indigenous "#ReMattering": A conversation with #DavidShaneLowry, PhD

"Sheeva Azma talks to Dr. David Shane Lowry about his work magnifying #IndigenousPerspectives from an anthropological perspective, including in science and technology, and science communication.

"Dr. Lowry serves on the faculty at the University of Southern Maine. He earned his BS from MIT and both Master’s and PhD from UNC Chapel Hill, all in anthropology. He is an anthropologist and member (citizen) of the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina. He grew up in the #Lumbee community in Robeson County, North Carolina. In 2021-22, he was Distinguished Fellow in #NativeAmerican Studies at MIT, where he led a new conversation at MIT about the responsibilities of MIT (and science/technology education, more generally) in the theft of American Indian land and the dismantling of American Indian health and community. From 2022 to 2023, he was Visiting Senior Fellow in the School of Social Policy at Brandeis University. At USM, Dr. Lowry runs the #IndigenousRelationshipsLab as a place for and commitment to #justice and re-mattering of American Indian and other Indigenous peoples from #Maine, to #Massachusetts, to #NorthCarolina. David writes and hosts conversations on InTrust [link below]."
