First Clips from Viking Futures Film and Research Project at #displace18 Virtual Conference

On April 20, 2018, the first clips from my forthcoming feature-length documentary, Viking Futuresappeared in a video presentation for the 2018 Biennial Society for Cultural Anthropology/Society for Visual Anthropology joint Virtual Conference. Nestled in the Displaced Futures: Sovereignty, Denial and Imagination panel I co-organized with Randi Irwin (Doctoral Candidate at The New School), my short video presentation "New Iceland Now" featured interviews with anti-corruption pro-immigration activists, young politicians and parliamentarians, feminist media-entrepreneurs, and noted anthropologist of Iceland, genetics and environment, Gísli Pálsson. Stay tuned for more trailers and teasers, Summer 2018!

Also, check out this radio interview I did called “What Can Women Do to Fight for Equal Pay”, on Iceland’s Equal Pay Law. I was interviewed by Lauren Gilger from KJZZ (National Public Radio affiliate, Arizona), and the show aired January 9, 2018.
