Prepping for the inaugural \u201cBeyond Pedagogy\u201d inquiry group meeting this Thursday, I\u2019m rereading the first book I\u2019ve chosen for the group: Fragments of an Anarchist Anthropology<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll have more to share after the event and will give more context about the group itself. For now, I\u2019m putting together a toolbox of words Graeber seems to suggest as working language towards an anarchist vernacular within the academy. These words suggest places from which a discussion of what\u2019s next should be headed. I\u2019m not delving into definitions yet\u2026trying to create a matrix from which to further discussion on Thursday, if needed.<\/p>\n
