An Anthropologist following Gandhi (2)

India's first Prime Minister famously said "Don't spare me Shankar" (a leading Indian cartoonist). But #Gandhi did not spare Shankar ;) I wrote about this in my book Caricaturing Culture.

An anthropologist following Gandhi (3)

#Gandhi tapped the power of #cartoons & #public communication early into his journalistic career in #SouthAfrica. Cartoons could be Satyagraha (truth force). His #newspaper the Indian Opinion published and interpreted British cartoons.
An anthropologist following Gandhi (4)

#Gandhi was among the most widely caricatured personalities of his times. He kept a close eye on #cartoons. Here are two from my collection by the famous Shanghai-born British cartoonist Poy (Percy Fearon 1874-1948), Gandhi's contemporary.

Wow. I found a donor trying to give >£1m to delivery work in a certain sector. I also found*, and told them, that there's very little evidence about 'what works' in that sector. So they can't reliably fund delivery b/c nobody knows what to deliver. They'd better fund production…
2/ of research about what to deliver (& how). I connected them to some researchers. Now, 3 months later, they're starting a partnership to produce effective #research in that sector.

That entire intervention only took me about 2 hours. Rescued >£1m from almost certain fail.
3/ See: get your philanthro-advice from me: I know my game ;-)

*by using a @3ieNews evidence & gap map. (Which are a public good and hence hard to fund, but useful & consequential.)

1. There are not just 2 parties, there is a 3rd and a 4th incognito. As you know,the takeover has already started.

Rep. Marc Veasey appears with his friend Gene Lantz. Who is he? Well, he joined the Communist Party USA in the early 2000s.
2. The Communist Party USA (CPUSA) is working in the US and in #Texas, within the Democrat Party. Rep. Marc Veasey just happened to get their endorsement.
cpusa.org/about-us/
3. Democratic Precinct Chair Elaine Lantz, and her husband Gene Lantz, both involved with the Communist Party USA, endorsed Marc Veasey in his 2012 run for Congress.

Gene Lantz attended the Texas Democratic Party convention in Ft Worth on June 22 2018.

November is a good month for gratitude. #Grateful.
"Real Gratefulness, the kind of transformative thanksgiving that makes all things new, cannot be quiet in the face of injustice. If we embrace the sort of gratitude that changes our individual lives, it will revolutionize our political lives as well." (from Grateful, p. 139)

Good morning, an appropriate reminded of where we stand today

👇🏽
and for those interested in the topic, the lecture I gave at the University of Amsterdam last year about international right wing networks as "war machine assemblages"
Back in 2012 when Breivik's manifesto was made public I was researching the way right wing white supremacists started organising online in a globalized way. This was interrupted when I got seriously ill by end of '14 or so. Then when I recovered and came back, I continued
