My name is Atria Wulf,
The purpose of this blog is to introduce the coming project of stepping into someone elses shoes as it were. I will be finding someone whose culture and beliefs are different from my own especially politically and ideologically. I will be attempting to view things from their side of the world, and see who they are.
My first task is simply to describe someone who did it before hand. Today I will be reviewing the writing "Strangers In Their Own Land" by Arlie Russell, for examples on how to do this assignment and comparing how he set out to do something similarly.
Arlie Russell had gone out with a mission in mind. That mission being to take record of indigenous cultures that were threatened by extinction due to the post colonialist industrial world. He saw it as an important mission due to the fact that it was important if not able to save the work, but rather immortalize it through recording and preservation of thorough documentation of these tribal networks. This is, in a way, helping the culture survive, and gain further understanding of humans social identities. while doing this he focused on the underlying morals and beliefs of peoples through their emotional values.
