Wait till you learn about what France did to Africa....

I was on @CNN to share some insights on the preoccupying situation in France, and the continuum between colonial violence, contemporary police abuse and the policing of France’s projects.

I speak of #revolts, not #riots

So much demands our best thinking. This, I needed to say: “What the Birthright-Citizenship Debate Is Really About. By questioning birthright, politicians threaten to undo a fundamental precept of our democracy.” https://t.co/lqHHMp6mi1

Highly recommend new book about the environmental history of the American west by @sara_dant published by @UnivNebPress. Worth taking a look.

Any early Americanists out there interested in weather? Just took pics of a 1785-1786 journal kept by a Brit who traveled the U.S. East Coast & South. He recorded the day's weather in each entry. Happy to email PDFs of my images! (Examples in next tweet.) #twitterstorians

Sometimes to get remembered in history, you need a great publicist. For the anniversary of “Custer’s Last Stand,” @lindstorian explains how myths about the battle appeared in textbooks because of a lobbying campaign by Custer’s widow https://t.co/2njJdw57Xx

@dr_tgpeterson And get so much more out of any class when they find their angle on the past…

[Joyce Carol Oates @JoyceCarolOates]

are there instances of women becoming obsessed with historic events? definitely a male preoccupation with certain phases of history (Civil War, Nazis, Hitler) & reenactments of battles. women may obsess over reading, music & dance, kitties, doggies, clothes, gardening, men.
