For the Film Discussion Board #3: Film- Trobriand Cricket, please watch the film Trobriand Cricket: The Sport Catches on in New Guinea. To access the film you will need to go to the college’s website, and click on the link for the library (which is on the right side of the main page), and then click on “streaming video collections” under the Quick Links section halfway down the page on the right. Scroll down to the 4th entry “Films on Demand” and click on that, you will need to enter your Canvas/Self Service login, which will take you to the search page for “Films on Demand”, and type in “Trobriand Cricket” in the search bar at the top of the page. You may need to scroll down to find the full video (there are a lot of segments of the video first), for me it was the 5th entry (it is 50:46 minutes long). If you have difficulty finding it please let me know and I can try to help.
As you watch the film, please pay attention to several of the concepts that we have discussed recently such as the concepts of syncretism, globalization and colonialism. You will also notice many other concepts that we have discussed throughout the semester, such as magic and political organization. One term that I want you to be familiar with is the term Kayasa. Regardless of what concepts you choose to focus on from the film, feel free to use specific examples.
