Join the National Association of Scholars on Friday, September 29, at 3 pm ET for "Can We Save Archaeology?"

Should there be scientific fields that exclude white academics? Elizabeth Weiss, a professor of anthropology at San Jose State University, has been embroiled in this question, over the status of native American archaeological and anthropological museum specimens. Under pressure from native American activists, she has faced harassment, ostracism, and denial of access to museum specimens essential for her research work. Should native American archaeology be the sole enclave of native Americans?

This webinar will feature Elizabeth Weiss, a professor of anthropology at San Jose State University in California and a faculty fellow at Heterodox Academy’s Center for Academic Pluralism.

The discussion will be moderated by J. Scott Turner of the National Association of Scholars.

Join the National Association of Scholars on Friday, September 22, at 3 pm ET to discuss “American Innovation: ENIAC—the First Computer.”

Completed in 1945, ENIAC was the first programmable, electronic, general-purpose digital computer of its kind. What is the story behind ENIAC's development? What was it used for, and how did it lead to further developments in the field? What made ENIAC special or the first of its kind?

This event will feature Jack Copeland, Distinguished Professor of Arts at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand, and director of the Turing Archive for the History of Computing; Zhao Fan, a postdoctoral fellow at Kobe University; Mark Priestly, a senior research fellow at the National Museum of Computing; Raul Rojas, Professor of Artificial Intelligence in the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at Freie Universität Berlin.
