Why I studied history, why I study climate change, and why I want to study environmental/climate history.

@edgykristina I grew up in a moderate-to-liberal cooperative baptist church with a liberal family but in a deeply conservative city! Always been liberal and I still love the church I grew up in, as strange as that may sound 🤷🏼‍♀️it was a weird liberal safe space for me haha

There’s a Hegel reading group immediately after one of my seminars, and every week, at least one person asks if I’m planning to stay. I decline for two reasons:
1) have been on campus all day and must go home to walk my poor dog 🥺
2) I simply do not want to ☺️

Loving this atmosphere for studying Tibetan 💙

Looking at existing Environmental and Climate Justice syllabi that barely feature scholars, activists, and communities of color. So I've given myself the (VERY easy) task of writing a syllabus that features almost exclusively writers of color. Feel free to share readings here!

#twitterstorians my first year is over, and this summer I will be studying Tibetan and also walking a lot of dogs! While I walk (and drive to walks), I wanna listen to monographs via audiobooks. Any suggestions for what is out there for East Asia historiography in this format 👀

@asmhardin I can attest to this. At the onset of Covid, my main form of social interaction was hanging out with fellow dog owners at the apartment dog park and going on walks together. Got to know people super well!!

Fascinating how @Yangguobin utilized Chinese social media in writing the social history behind The Wuhan Lockdown. Thank you @LongInstitute and @emilybaumUCI for organizing and hosting!

@DGTam86 CONGRATULATIONSSSS! Ahh so happy for you!

[Gina Anne Tam 譚吉娜 @DGTam86]

I am so delighted to announce that I’ve been awarded tenure and promotion to associate professor! The kittens got all dressed up to celebrate with me!

[Natalie Belew卜乐琴 @NatalieBelew]

I decided to unwind by putting on the Ken Burns: The National Parks documentary series since it had been a hot minute since checking it out and potentially useful for my research... She's really not as cute as I remembered 😬

[Student Workers of Columbia @SW_Columbia]

Please sign this petition to urge Columbia into giving workplace protections to people based on job responsibilities rather than job titles or on-paper hours, which the University can change at any time to exclude certain workers.

@GeogBucky To me, it seemed obviously google translated 😂 决不放弃 is literally never give up, and I interpret 唯一的 as like the only one…? That one I’m more fuzzy on. Neither are phrases I’ve heard used before in my classes/travels 😅

[Natalie Belew卜乐琴 @NatalieBelew]

My latest obsession at the gym is seeing the buff white bros with tattoos of Chinese characters. For instance, today, one guy had 决不放弃 on his bicep and another had 唯一的 on his rib cage.
