INSTRUCTIONS:
What are the main differences between anthropologists and missionaries that aim to communicate with uncontacted peoples? Do you think John Chau and others like him ‘deserve’ (justified?) to be attacked/killed? Why or why not? How do you think indigenous groups that wish to remain uncontacted perceive outsiders? Reference the articles on North Sentinel Island & John Chau, as well as the Horowitz article to articulate your argument. Your response should be a minimum of 250 words John Allen Chau https://newrepublic.com/article/152392/strange-ethics-killing-john-allen-chau Ryan Schram. “On John Chau: North Sentinel Island and the secular sacred of uncontacted peoples” in Notes on anthropology, Melanesia, and Cultural Change. http://schr.am/4w
