Is there a way to have the passage sections be uploaded to the lessons so we can follow along if we want? I would like to have them in my notes without screenshotting the videos.
This passage really shows me how much certain vocabulary makes me struggle. I can easily understand this passage (it's my discipline and topic) yet I really struggle with the more technical ones (ie. non social sciences). I think this demonstrates that I have let myself get distracted with the vocab, since if I can understand this one, I should be able to understand any of the passages -if I don't let the vocab get in my way. All this is to say, I need to focus more on the grammar and structure and less on unfamialiar words.
I personally divided this first paragraph into two sections. I first thought that "introduce debate" was enough, but I think there's a stark contrast between the opening and the closing of the paragraph.
Decades trying to get rid of (unself-conscious) colonial gaze (factor) in early ethnographic (studying something for a length of time) films, visual anthropologists (the people making ethnographic films?) from the industrialized West (specifically) who study Indigenous cultures are struggling RIGHT NOW with a more profound transformation than trying to eliminate the colonial gaze in early ethnographic films... so visual anthropologists aren't who make those films? we're just saying there are people doing something harder?
Indigenous people now documenting themselves instead of settlers filming them. Why? inexpensive camera equipment! but don't get so excited. this phenomenon has a divided reaction from western anthropologists. Prediction? the Emma (me) group that think this is great to not be filmed like guinea pigs or capitalize on adversities and the others who want to continue capitlizing OR if they think they hav an eye and are better at documenting.
this is how I was reading this - only way to keep me from falling asleep was putting commentary on what i was reading and making my studying take wayyyyy longer.
People who write like this need to be shot! You know their only goal is to pretend to be smarter than they actually are. They pretend that their degrees in underwater basketweaving deserve an ounce of respect by making simple topics seem more complicated than they are. Their strategy is to go to the grant office to ask for funding and despite their actual projects are the equivalent of catching 3 butterflies, they pretend that their projects are as important as holding up the heavens by using complex jargon to confuse the simple minded. God, I hate these people so much!

Im scared now. Someone think of the chil--- Of my lsat score!
Some jargons, even translated to my mother tongue, still sound like words invented by aliens
Dude I did the stain glass RC a few days ago it was so bad!
is it because im latin american or was it very obvious what "colonial gaze" meant lmao
No shade but the topic wasn’t boring, learning about anti colonialism pro indigenous perseveration is interesting
I can tell even Kevin trying to understand the passage makes his brain hurt

Anyone taking the June LSAT? I feel like I am behind and I am stressed out.
Kevin's got a good sense of humor, confirmed.

a) introduce topic/context
b) highlight debate
the male gaze LMAO
when i grow up i wanna be kevin
I'm glad that even the people who teach the LSAT for a living admit that its creators are demons.
listening to Kevin explain this was hilarious.

LOVED THE INTRO!! LOL #feedback
made my LSAT study day
Where are my high-fiving puppies!!
Drilling mud and stained glass are both very interesting to me due to various species of worms in my brain.
'male gaze' vs 'colonial gaze'
now im imagining a bunch of colonials gawking at hot chicks
I'm not gonna lie Kevin, the beginning of this video made me chuckle.
The drilling mud passage was the end of me
bruh I just finished the RC module like a week or two ago and you guys now come out with this to replace it -.- crying
