Abstract:In a series of interviews conducted in 2020, anthropologist Maria Grosz-Ngaté looks back on her career, which began with research on work, migration, gender, and social change in Mali's Ségou region. In her reflections, Dr. Grosz-Ngaté discusses her research, her time as associate director of Indiana University's African Studies Program, and her role as an associate editor of Africa Today. A major theme that ran throughout the conversation is her long-standing commitment to the decolonization of knowledge. Dr. Grosz-Ngaté shares her personal experience working toward this goal and discusses ways in which research could become more collaborative and better incorporate perspectives and knowledge from the continent.
