Black American Cemeteries And Our Need For The Stories They Tell, Vincent H. Melomo Jul 2026

Black American Cemeteries And Our Need For The Stories They Tell, Vincent H. Melomo

Proceedings of the annual meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society

In recent decades, there have been increasing efforts to recognize, protect, and restore Black American historic cemeteries. At the same time, many of the historic communities in which these cemeteries lie have become increasingly gentrified.

Nevertheless, historic cemeteries remain as stubborn and defiant reminders of those histories and provide an opportunity to challenge those erasures. This paper will tell the story of historic cemeteries in Raleigh, North Carolina, addressing key aspects of their histories, highlighting racial inequalities.

Tourism, Security, And Sacred Space At Bethany Beyond The Jordan, Olivia Stockwell Jul 2026

Tourism, Security, And Sacred Space At Bethany Beyond The Jordan, Olivia Stockwell

Proceedings of the annual meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society

Bethany Beyond the Jordan, a UNESCO World Heritage Site advertised as the baptismal site of Jesus of Nazareth, lies on the border between Jordan and the occupied West Bank. Based on first-person observation, this article provides a semiotic analysis of how tourist spaces, commodification, and security infrastructure interact to create perceptions of sacred space. When placed in conversation with the historical and political contexts of the site, these factors provide insight into how meanings of sacrality are generated. I argue that notions of the sacred at Bethany Beyond the Jordan are shaped by tourism spaces and their organizing of ritual …
