as a Sudanese citizen, i was pushed out of the US after Trump’s June 9, 2025 ban, meaning i could no longer defend my dissertation in person. years of hard work came to an end today over zoom. still, im grateful Princeton & my advisers allowed me to see it thru to the end. 🙋🏾‍♀️🎓🪬

I’m really happy with how this script turned out.

The curse of being a historian whose field of study is relevant:

You are cursed with knowledge and forced to watch people say dumb things on the internet all day long

Ethiopia iz the only African country that was never colonised and their art remains original.
A little late but i remembered an exhibition i saw in the Toledo Museum of Art Ohio:
Album Leaves with the Entombment of Christ (TOP LEFT), the Ascension of Christ (TOP RIGHT), the Assumption of the Virgin (BOTTOM LEFT), and Saint
George (BOTTOM RIGHT)
PIGMENTS ON VELLUM, LATE 17TH CENTURY Minneapolis Institute of Art, The Robert J. Ulrich Works of Art Purchase Fund, 2009.39.3y, bb, dd, oo
This set of leaves, from a series of 44, exhibits a similar figural style and palette as the manuscript from Säwa in the case to your right, and these may have been produced in that city as well. These leaves, now matted separately, are large in scale; however, they were originally arranged in series and were likely painted on several long sheets of parchment that were sewn together and folded accordion-style to form a sansul, or chained manuscript.

@kejamieson_ One teacher on iTalky was genuinely impressed with my random military vocabulary, and seems to think I could probably storm a town or take a hill in Spanish! 🤣
