We are proud to present the digital edition of Volume X of the Anthropology Undergraduate Journal! This volume marks a decade of showcasing outstanding undergraduate work in
anthropology for the AUJ.

This volume features a wide range of anthropological inquiry, and many of the articles combine research methods from multiple subfields as well as other social sciences, promoting both inter- and intra-disciplinary dialogue. The articles in this volume touch on critical themes including colonial legacies, religious and political identity, Indigenous resistance, capitalism and neoliberalism, gender and sex-based oppression, and systemic racism. Volume X also features two original ethnographies as well as several articles from the emergent field of medical anthropology.
