“You just want to re‐open our biggest wounds, don't you?”: Homeplace ethnography as (polluted) environmental method

Feminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract When I was 12, my family told me a story about their community falling apart and coming together, a time when someone tried putting a nuclear facility in their (our?) hometown. Since we moved when I was too young to remember, the story had little significance until I embarked on a “hometown” ethnographic journey for my dissertation.
