come after us’: interwar feminists’ archival activism and
the recasting of Australian history' https://t.co/grqgMG9Rkf

One year postdoc in Australian history at Sydney Uni - details below. It’s a very short window - please spread among networks

Nice to see this forum on Ian Tyrrell's work in AJAS.

It was a privilege to reflect on his work and to learn from other fantastic scholars' responses to Ian's writing on women, temperance, and transnational activism: https://t.co/5cOUX54GwS

I can't believe ANU is proposing to disestablish the Australian National Dictonary Centre. Over the last 20 years of writing I've often consulted staff over the origins of obscure words and phrases. We need the dictionary to record and explain our changing language.

Just announced from Mosaic Records: The Complete Pharoah Sanders Theresa Recordings.

I love Pharoah in this period, and there is a LOT of fantastic music here. Full disclosure: I wrote the notes for this set -- 10,500 words.
