Challenging the Canon
This paper focuses on pedagogical changes to decolonize an upper-division Anthropology of Women course to focus on BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour) scholarly representation, thus challenging the anthropological canon. I will discuss the pedagogical redesign and implementation of the class—from its associated course description, required readings, and instructional and assessment activities—that I modeled after the Cite Black Women …
Longitudinal weight gain of immunized infants and toddlers in Moroto District, Uganda (Karamoja subregion)
This study examines longitudinal weight gain of a sample of 123 immunized children from Moroto District, northeast Uganda. The weight data were combined from two sources: (1) anthropometric examinations carried out between 1998 and 2004 by a research team from the University of Kansas, and (2) weights recorded on children's immunization records by local health care practitioners. Our findings conform generally to the pattern described in previous…
Mixed‐longitudinal growth of Karimojong girls and boys in Moroto District, Uganda
In this article we examine results of a mixed‐longitudinal study of child and adolescent growth among agropastoral Karimojong children in Moroto District, northeast Uganda. During a 5‐month period from August to December, 2004, longitudinal data were collected for a mixed sample of 104 Karimojong children, aged from birth to 18 years. During a previous study in 1998–1999,we had measured 26 of these children who then ranged in Age between 3 months…
Mixed‐longitudinal growth of breastfeeding children in Moroto District, Uganda (Karamoja subregion). A loss of biological resiliency
This study examines the pattern of growth, underlying growth velocity and nutritional status in a sample of thirty breastfeeding Karimojong children, aged from birth to three years. A mixed‐longitudinal structure was adopted for the study, which was carried out between August and December, 2004, in two communities in Moroto District, Uganda. Monthly anthropometric and health examinations were administered to mothers and children during this inter…
Cattle Raiding, Cultural Survival, and Adaptability of East African Pastoralists
Since the late 1970s, cattle raiding with automatic weapons has escalated among nomadic herding societies in northern East Africa. We examine the impact of AK47 raiding on the adaptability of Karimojong agropastoralists in northern Uganda. Most notably, raiding is linked to a loss of population resilience in Karamoja, measured in increased mortality of young children and of adult males in their prime reproductive years and decreased female fertil…
