“…What would the study of species extinction look like with those ideas as the backbone of ecological knowledge, and what light might it have shone on the limits of the discipline of "human ecology"? Apart from the four fields, such a field of study would require training in biology, mathematics, and environmental science.The Study of Reparations, Landback Initiatives, Truth and Reconciliation, Redistributive and Restitutive Justice, and the Redressal of Historical WrongsStudying these topics might have impacted how we understand the legacies of slavery, mass killings, illegal land seizures, and colonial plunder inflicted on Brown and Black people throughout the globe (R Allen 1998;Beckles 2013;Clarke, Nmehielle, and Jalloh 2019;Craemer 2020;Deloria 1988b;Evans and Lees 2021;Gray 2018;Hauser et al 2018;Howard-Hassmann 2004;Johnston and Slyomovics 2016;.

After Ferguson, Standing Rock, the Black Lives Matter protests, and the crisis of refugees at the US southern border, there have been renewed calls for a racial reckoning in US anthropology. Dissatisfaction on the domestic front runs parallel to an unease over US anthropology's failure to adequately address militarism, imperialism, and predatory capitalism abroad. Finally, there is the fraught question of US anthropology's oversized influence within world anthropologies. We propose that a reassessment of US anthropology might fruitfully begin with some counterfactual history. How would US anthropology been different had the founding generations conceptualized the discipline as a decolonizing project? What topics or themes might have become central to US anthropology? How might our methods have been different? To make anthropology departments more diverse, inclusive, and equitable, we need to do more than add faculty and students of color. Despite being a field whose central concept is "culture," we have paid far too little attention to the culture of anthropology departments. Do unexamined practices of "white-norming" that shape the everyday lives of faculty and students in anthropology departments persistently "Other"-marginalize and alienate-people of color?
