The discussion forum is based on another movie. Before making a post, you should the movie "Coming of Age: Margaret Mead". The film is available as streaming video via the Oviatt Library.

The Oviatt Library version of the film has close captioning. You must be logged in as a CSUN student to view the film.

After you've watched the film, you should post a commentary of at least 100 words. The main subject of your commentary should be whether traditional ethnography, as exemplified by Margaret Mead is worth doing. Does it result in knowledge or merely in a subjective and superficial interpretation of another culture? After addressing that question, you are free to make any comments you feel are relevant.
