Linguistic and medical anthropologist in the Department of Anthropology at the University of California, Berkeley; I love teaching, research, and writing. My most recent book is Incommunicable: Toward Communicative Justice in Health and Medicine.
In Delta Amacuro State of Venezuela, I was working in Indigenous communities during a pertussis outbreak. You could hear the sounds of people coughing from far away. The disease is no joke.
