Reposting because lots of names have been added since I created it 3 days ago and new arrivals to BlueSky may not have seen it yet. There’s still room for more before we reach the 150 limit, so please spread the word and let me know if you’d like to be added.

Hi, I'm a cultural anthropologist dealing with 👻 by connecting ethnography in post-displacement regions in 🇵🇱, 🇨🇿 & 🇸🇰 with study of archives to find out what were the encounters of humans and non-humans after the forced displacement of Germans post-1945. Recently, I published this book ⤵️.
