Let me tell you a story – one of the more haunting I’ve seen in 20 years of journalism. It’s about greed, death and denial. It took two years to unravel one doctor’s myth, a hospital’s complicity in creating it, and a documented trail of suspicious deaths… 🧵

It’s Holocaust Memorial Day. This year, I’m thinking of a woman called Sulamita Szapiro. Here she is as a student. We weren’t related and I don’t even know much about her, but I’m pretty sure that remembering her still falls to me. This is a thread about why.

@amandamull @hooverstreet I second Robert Rydell’s All the World’s a Fair! It does a good job showing how the fairs were used to legitimize and uphold racial and gender hierarchies both within the US and as part of empire building during the 19th and 20th centuries when those hierarchies were coalescing

The fall of the Western Roman Empire was a disaster which left Europe in disarray for centuries.
But it was the *second* worst collapse in mediterranean history. The Late Bronze Age Collapse was much worse.

The most daring thing said about white supremacy I’ve heard from a politician. Wanna know why military installations honoring white supremacists need to be renamed? @ewarren tells us. And she goes there like no one else is willing to. LISTEN TO EVERY WORD

The problem with 10:30pm is that it comes exactly one minute before 2:30am if you’re not careful.

People keep asking for my opinion on cancel culture, and the only thing i have to say is that the Atlantic was nearly destroyed in 1869 by thousands of subscription cancellations over an article by Harriet Beecher Stowe insinuating that Lord Byron fucked his sister

a meticulously costumed, historically accurate prestige drama series set during the bubonic plague would really hit the spot for me right now
