Chris Knight talks on
'How we got stuck: The hunter Monmanecki and his wives can teach Graeber and Wengrow a lesson'

'The Dawn of Everything' argues that human political arrangements got stuck when divine kings and other patriarchal despots began to confuse paternal care with coercive control. Drawing on insights provided by an Amazonian myth, argues that the decisive changes occurred much earlier than Graeber and Wengrow suppose. Gender politics got stuck when patriarchal forms of marriage and residence took over, disconnecting women from their former freedom to choose where to live – a freedom in turn linked with the periodicity of the moon.

Chris will be LIVE in the Daryll Forde, 2nd Floor of UCL Anthropology Dept. Come in good time by 6:30pm before doors close please. You can also join on ZOOM ID 384 186 2174 passcode Wawilak

@RadicalAnthro as much as I dig where Graeber and Wengrow took the status quo to task I super dig where Knight outwokes em even further!
