Anthropological

There is an anthropological theory that early Australoids arrived in the Americas before the Mongoloids, many thousands of years ago.

On the 31st of March of 2022, morning, for a change from my pizzeria habit, I went straight to the cafe, where I drank iced black tea and ate barbecue potato chips. I saw Lizbeth, the Mexican ex-barista, and I asked her how her dance classes were going. She taught Dance Feet and Zumba, founded in Colombia. At the sandwich shop, I ate a tuna sandwich with black olives and drank black coffee. There were two muscular brown labourers ordering. In the afternoon, I ate two pizza pieces with a diet cola at the pizzeria. There were many multiracial customers, like an anthropological rainbow.

In the morning of the 5th of September of 2022, at the Lulu Island café, Greg and I discuss sociopolitical and anthropological issues. Firstly, Greg shows me his brown pocket Modern-English Bible. I tell him that I have a big purple Tagalog Bible and a dark-blue pocket Jehovah's Witnesses' Tagalog Bible. We both know that in both English and Tagalog, there are various versions of the Bible. Then we talk about Alaska, once Russian territory, and the big Mississippi River Basin, once French territory. I tell Greg about the teleseries, Anash and the Legacy of the Sun-Rock, about the life of native Tlingit tribespeople in contact with Russians in southern Alaska and northern BC. I know that not just in BC, there are handsome hybrid children from Europeans and First Nations mixing. We talk about Brazil, which, I say, has three main blending peoples, whites, reds, and blacks. The Philippines is different from Brazil, where there are Nordics, not just Mediterraneans, amongst whites. There are Mexican-looking Filipinos in the café. From my Filipino friend Chris S., a linguist, I hear about a "Mexipino Fest" held on the 3rd of this month in Santa Cruz in California, as Filipinos and Mexicans celebrated their rich cultures. I may want to be a "Mexipino," so I should practice my Spanish, of which I do know a lot already. I am reading Bram Stoker's Drácula in Spanish, as Halloween approaches. I am also reading an Esperanto book, Memoraĵoj de kampara knabo, by Xosé Neira Vilas.

Anstice Justin, head of the Andaman unit of the Anthropological Survey of India, recently led a mission to assess the damage on islands where one of the tribes live. He found sand and debris had filled the shallow waters where the Sentinelese people used to pole their canoes to catch fish.

Much of the film is a detached, almost anthropological, look at the lives of the women and men, both white and of color, who live in the slums and housing projects outside of Paris.

He draws eclectically on studies of baboons, descriptive anthropological accounts of hunter-gatherer societies and, in a few cases, the fossil record.
