That was a huge amount of fun on my #SCWH2021Conference panel! Many thanks to the @SCWHConference for organising this virtual event, to @dgleesonhistory for chairing & my fellow panelists for great papers/discussion/comments! Also so lovely to finally meet @CLMcWhirter virtually!

It’s game time @SCWHConference. Ready to talk about faith and politics during Reconstruction with @NicoMyTurn & @caitlinverboon.

[Christian McWhirter @CLMcWhirter]

Hey everyone! I'll be talking about Lincoln and minstrelsy as part of this excellent panel today!

Always happy to attend @SCWHistorians conference, even if only virtually.
