About

Hannah McElgunn is a linguistic anthropologist whose writing and teaching explores the dynamic relationship between language and culture. Her primary research and ethical commitments are centered at Hopi, an Indigenous community, language, and way of life in Arizona. Working in reciprocity with friends and colleagues, she studies the historical and contemporary appropriation of Hopi language, knowledge, and other 카지노 게임 컬렉션intangible카지노 게임 컬렉션 materials, and the various ways they might be reclaimed in the present. Her work seeks to support information sovereignty and strengthen connections between Indigenous languages and communities, while also fostering methodological and theoretical ties between the disciplines of Linguistics and Anthropology. Before coming to Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s, Hannah was a SSHRC postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Anthropology at the 카지노게임사이트 of British Columbia.
