The first two articles in the "Venezuelan Revolutions" series for @AgeofRevs are now posted. Both examine the circulation of political imagery from very different perspectives.

In "The Ghost of the Roosevelt Corollary and the Lies behind Intervention," Marlon Londoño compares U.S. "distortion of Latin American political culture to justify intervention" in the early 20th c. vs. today, bringing in the silent film "Garras de oro." https://t.co/TXsDKoKuni

Pitch me your ideas—scholarly and otherwise—for an @AgeofRevs series on Venezuela. I’ve already seen a lot of good discussion on here. Let’s move some of it to a more expanded forum. DM or email with questions.

I dug through the JFK assassination papers to see what I could learn about CIA operations in Colombia during the 1960s and 70s. Here's what I found. https://t.co/KnaMgL1U3a

Recently learned that Notre Dame’s “touchdown Jesus” was inspired by the Juan O’Gorman mosaic on the central library at the Universidad Nacional
Autónoma de México. Got to see both this month for my new job. 😍

@Em_AguilarPhD @KelloggInst @NotreDame Thanks so much!! Same here!

[Amanda Waterhouse @AmandaCWater]

Since it’s my official start date, I wanted to share that I am now a Postdoctoral Research Associate @KelloggInst @NotreDame. I’ll be spending the next 1-2 years finishing my book and working with some amazing colleagues on publishing an edited volume. A Hoosier once again. 🌸

If any national media or subterranean podcast sickos want to cover the state government nuking 116 degree programs at IU, our DMs are open 👀

It was an honor to review @sheydaj ’s book for the @AmHistReview. A wonderful contribution to the historiography, and an excellent teaching resource, as I try to highlight in the piece. 🌎 https://t.co/tINU7ByTAm

Any historians/scholars affected by DOGE? I'm writing my book on the history of the War on Terror, which relies upon oral histories published by the U.S. Institute of Peace (USIP). DOGE killed it, sadly. And now the links to those oral histories are dead. Keep the citations, yes?

[Amanda Waterhouse @AmandaCWater]

Somehow missed this @HDiplo review of my Diplomatic History article from last year. Thanks so much to @DieyunSong for such a thoughtful and incisive analysis of the piece.

🔴Why do states cooperate in transnational repression? 🔴
We answer this question in our @ISQ_Jrnl article with @LorenaBalardini through the case study of Operation Condor.
Learn about Condor 50 years after its official founding in 1975. It’s open access: https://t.co/FzDS1bweVW

Very excited to finally have a copy of @GregGrandin ‘s new book. Glad to see lots of Colombia content too. Can’t wait to start my summer reading. 🌿

[Rachel Nolan @rachelbnolan]

My book, UNTIL I FIND YOU, is a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize.

My hope all along was that more people would learn what happened in Guatemala...
