About this episode

Last time in episode 183 we checked out the Society for American Archaeology (SAA) meetings and found out that while they are behind in public outreach and always a bit too academic for the sake of being academic, they are trying to change their ways a bit and that is a nice thing. Today we look at the unfortunate case of the American Anthropological Association (AAA), who has decided that feelings matter more than facts and irrelevance is preferable to change.
