CLAY, Patricia (NOAA Fisheries) and FISKE, Shirley (UMD) Re-Thinking Subsistence in Turbulent Times: New Contexts, Configurations, and Intersections with Social and Environmental Justice. Subsistence has long been recognized as a cultural system among indigenous peoples—a way of harvesting, sharing resources, and maintaining social traditions. While pioneered and formalized in the US with respect to Alaska Natives, there has been a 10-year proliferation of research on non-indigenous communities practicing subsistence in non- traditional contexts (including coastal Louisiana, Northeast coastal fishing, and fishing in urban rivers and parks). This panel brings together research and work from recent studies to encourage re-thinking subsistence given contemporary realities. The papers investigate the intersection of subsistence harvesting and social and environmental justice.

Part Six: Doing Applied Urban Ethnography in the Neoliberal Age - Q&A

Doing Applied Urban Ethnography in the Neoliberal Age 
 
CHAIR: NELSON, Andrew (UNT) 
MCFARLAND, Kelly (UNT) Urban Farming: Secret Gardens, Hidden Jungles, and Unexpected Farms in Plain Sight SANCHEZ, Saniego (UNT) Art Exhibitions and Programs as Vital Resources for Urban Applied Ethnographers 
BELL, Kayeron (K.D.) (UNT) Evaluating Neighborhood Needs for Social Programs 
JIMENEZ, Kat (UNT) (Trans)cending Dallas’ “Gayborhood”: Establishing the Need for LGBTQ Urban Mobility 
 
DISCUSSANT: NELSON, Andrew (UNT)
 
ABSTRACT: 
NELSON, Andrew (UNT) Doing Applied Urban Ethnography in the Neoliberal Age. As cities become increasingly deregulated and privatized, applied urban ethnographers encounter new approaches to community empowerment. In this panel, we present four different ethnographic examples of organizations and people employing tactics and strategies for meeting social needs in the neoliberal city. For instance, we highlight urban farms appealing to city-dwellers’ desire for ‘working the land,’ a museum organizing social science exhibits and talks, a community center developing programs for a historically neglected African-American neighborhood, and a transgender affirming initiative compensating for the uneven distribution of LGBTQ-oriented health services in the city.
