Accepted Paper:

Representing the over-represented and mis-understood: ethnography in a marginalised school  
Melinda Herron (The University of Melbourne)

Paper short abstract:

Using creative performance about teenagers in a disadvantaged school, this provocation explores how we might communicate ethnographic research of 'over studied' groups in ethical, accessible ways.

Paper long abstract:

In this 'sound-bite' age, how do we as anthropologists communicate nuance in succinct and accessible ways to mitigate the risk of inadvertently verifying assumptions about marginalised, 'over studied' groups? Using creative performance about teenagers in a disadvantaged school, this provocation explores how we might activate stories in productive, practical ways.
