RESEARCH INTERESTS聽

Dr. Siewert is a linguistic anthropologist interested in language and culture maintenance in an Anishinaabe community, with special focus on cross-generational transmission of cultural knowledge through performance鈥攊n other words, how youth and elders use creative verbal performance as pedagogy. In addition to ongoing research into emergent approaches to heritage language and culture revitalization, she plans to resume research paused by COVID-19 into archives and the repatriation of Anishinaabe linguistic and cultural knowledge recorded in Jesuit missionary texts.聽聽

TEACHING INTERESTS聽

Dr. Siewert鈥檚 courses are designed for students to critically engage how their ways of knowing enrich concepts learned in an anthropology classroom. She works to contextualize 鈥渃anon鈥� texts and thinkers through newer or innovative research so students are exposed diverse perspectives on topics such as race, gender, the history of anthropology, and ethnographic representations of peoples and cultures. She is committed to teaching anthropology as a discipline that reflects the plurality of positionalities represented within the CSUDH classroom, the academy, and the world.聽
