Some info coming to you via a student in Jean Lave's Bourdieu class from
the Bourdieu discussion group. I found it surprising enough that I think
others on xmca will find interesting
Wishing everyone a wonderful Thankgiving Holiday to everyone in the U.S.
and warm thoughts of hope, peace, and love to the rest of the world
(which like me, may be a bit puzzled by the ritual of "Turkey day" :-)
