Sozial- und Kulturanthropologie @freieuniversitaet.bsky.social gegen Kürzungen und Rechtsruck!

The Ethnological Museum Berlin has issued a press statement in support of retaining all professorships in social and cultural anthropology at Freie Universitität Berlin. This is also essential for the future of ethnological museums in Germany ⬇️

Herzlichen Dank an den Vorstand der @dgska.bsky.social für das deutliche Unterstützungsschreiben angesichts der drohenden Kürzungen, durch die die Existenz unseres Instituts @freieuniversitaet.bsky.social insgesamt bedroht wäre 🙏

Gestern protestierten unsere Studierenden bei einer Sitzung des akad. Senats gegen die Kürzungspläne der FU Berlin, die unser Institut für Sozial- und Kulturanthropologie unverhältnismäßig hart treffen würden. Vielen Dank an alle, die sich solidarisiert haben. It means a lot! 💜✊
