About this listen

Arianna focused on the impacts of the closure of a Walmart in her hometown of Albuquerque for her thesis in the anthropology department. She also tells us about how Reed College's Anthropology Student Fund helped to support her research, and how her thesis adviser helped her re-work her initial thesis ideas using a concept from environmental anthropology. Reed community members can read Arianna's thesis, “One Albuquerque? Crime, Security, and Dispossession in Albuquerque’s Sacrifice Zone” online in the Electronic Theses Archive: https://rdc.reed.edu/i/ef189f1b-bd01-4124-a2fa-b3921222eea8 Explore more interviews with Reed College alumni on our website: reed.edu/burnyourdraft
