Post 5: My favorite photograph

I would like talk about a photograph that was take for Margaret Mead during her field work in Samoa, when She went to study the sexual practices in adolescents of Samoa. In this field work, Mead lived with the Samoa people for a long time like one of theirs. In this photograph We can see to Margaret Mead talk with a mother and your son in the place where They lives.  

This photograph was taken in 1928 y and , in my opinion, is a photograph that show very good the essence of the anthropological practice, that is talk with the people and know your culture in the daily life, in addition of yours traditions, religions, language and others elements that only We can know by this social interaction with the people. 

This interaction with the people for know your culture is very interesting for me and for this reason, I like very much study anthropology, because the field work have like a objective that the anthropologist might convert into one more of the tribe, family, community or any other social group.
