In this afterword, I begin by sharing a brief history of my early career as a non-Anglo-Celtic academic in an overwhelmingly Anglo-Celtic university environment
in Australia. I examine how questions of non-Anglo-Celtic academic authority and
accent play out in the process of teaching. I also explore the decolonizing impetus
behind my early work White Nation (2000) both in terms of its conceptualization
of Whiteness and Third-World-looking people and in terms of its reversal of the traditional research relations (a Lebanese analysing Anglo-Australians). I
argue that despite this history there are many dimensions of the new politics of
decolonization within anthropology that comes from outside my own tradition. I
offer an examination of some of the features of this ‘new wave’ of decolonization
and finish by looking into the decolonizing dimensions of my recent call to ‘respect
anthropology’s elders’.
