They are not some anonymous “a tribe in India”, they are the War-Khasi. Speaking as a former anthro student and as a reference librarian, I am beyond sick of posts (and articles, and emails, and museum displays) like this that present the work of a people without actually naming the people. It’s erasure, it’s reducing the great works of a culture to an Ozymandias-esque curiosity for foreigners to consume rather than an accomplishment that should help bring awareness of that culture’s existence.
They are the War-Khasi, a division of the Khasi, a people who call themselves Hynñiew Trep. They live in Meghalaya, and they have been building these bridges in the town of Cherrapunji for longer than anyone knows. They are not anonymous.
school nurses are the embodiment of all things hateful and mean in this world
One time in high school I texted my dad to come pick me up from school bc I vomited and when he got there I was called to the nurses office– not to receive medical treatment but so the nurse could yell at me for calling my dad instead of going to the nurses office??? Anyways I that’s the story of me crying at the high school nurse office
