“I am AAA. I am a professional anthropologist and I believe in possibilities and potential. I believe in the future of anthropology as a fully integrated discipline with a home for professional/practicing/applied
anthropologists. I believe in the power, sensitivity, and importance of the tools of anthropology to understand and help to address the complex problems that face our and each generation.”

"I would love to see all of us step out into the world beyond our day-to-day jobs…While we certainly need to discuss, confer, and debate among ourselves, I believe that making room in our busy lives for anthropological outreach is our next frontier and one worth embracing immediately. I am AAA."

"Lift anthropology up. It is a powerful discipline that has a strong footing in its own right and in interdisciplinary settings. Nothing occurs in a vacuum, as all human proceedings are touched by historical realities and institutional forces. Take this knowledge with you wherever you go. I am AAA."

“I am AAA because I am a doctoral candidate in cultural anthropology whose work explores the dynamics of Iraqi and Syrian displacements into Jordan, particularly the everyday relations, solidarities, and frictions between refugees and host communities."

"My work as an anthropologist in the Middle East region has served as a constant reminder of the importance of placing human beings first above all else. Ethnography is powerful due to the human connections we are able to forge. My research, scholarship, teaching, and activism have been in the service of social justice and I'm thankful to be part of a discipline and sub-field where this is valued. I am AAA."
