This course is designed for people who are actively attempting to teach, conduct research, or do social change work in a way that engages and cultivates the knowledge of marginalized communities. Organized efforts of marginalized people to produce collective knowledge and to make their knowledge matter have bubbled up in and been transported to many places and spaces across the globe, from rural Chiapas to rural Denmark, Appalachia to the Bronx, Brazil to Tanzania, the World Bank to the World Social Forum.

This course intends to provide you with both a background in elementary genetics and also a brief review of some of the major research in molecular anthropology and primatology. The section will begin with a review of genetics, inheritance, and population genetics. Subsequently, the major methodological advances of genomics will be addressed. Finally, we will review some of the major findings in human and primate genetics, including work on phylogeny, population genetics, molecular adaptation, and species' history.
