Hail Mary effort: anyone happen to know a jazz trio in Baltimore that would want to play for a few hours at a Black Studies book reception?

Whether it’s the the Biden White House misplacing an apostrophe in a transcript or Donald Trump explicitly threatening to execute Liz Cheney with a firing squad, both sides have badly soiled our national dialogue.

@aejohnsonphd Thank you, Dr. Johnson. Honored to hear you speak today.

[Gianna Mosser @EditrixMosser]

Also got to see movement student turned leader @brotherjones_ and I am still honored by the trust he put in @VanderbiltUP. Happy @SoFestofBooks to all who celebrate.

[Gianna Mosser @EditrixMosser]

One of TN's finest movement historians blessed @SoFestofBooks today. Look for @CharlesWMcKinn2 on the CSPAN channel when the festival footage airs.

Come by the @VanderbiltUP booth at the @TheSouthernSHA!

Has any author ever done something with the word list from their style sheet? Like a word poem or some sort of crossword puzzle? I feel like the word list from a book's style sheet is a secret code to the main text. OR maybe I need to step away from the copyedit I am working on.

[Steven P. Rodriguez, PhD @SPatrickRod]

I'll be at the @TheSouthernSHA and @WhaHistory conference later this month in #KansasCity. I want to hear about book projects on the U.S. South's relationship to the world, migration, Latinx studies, food studies, and many other topics. You can book a meeting with me here:
