Today is my book’s official release date! Thank you @RutgersUPress and to everyone who supported me during this years-long process! Crazy to think that what began as an essay for a 1st yr grad school class became a chapter in a real book. #playingwithhistory

@rizzo_pubhist Pre-covid there was a cafeteria for that brief research respite. Also, I found that the shuttle from downtown DC was easy and convenient if you don't want to drive.

A thoughtful and relevant letter from Sylvia on election night, 1944. Thoughts on voting, fascism, democracy, and the inadequacy of the English language. #brooklynhistory #wwii #voting

@KaraSchlichting @K80Uva Wow, that is so beautifully put! Take note, academia!

[Molly Rosner (she/her) @molly_rosner]

Such a great listen if you want to add nuance to your impressions of Robert Moses. So much to learn from these two stellar scholars @K80Uva @KaraSchlichting

@K80Uva @KaraSchlichting I can't tell if I want to laugh or cry at the idea that there was an "extra" hour 😅😩

"Change of Address" New post on the #blog today about moving as a young family. I'm anchoring my own experiences in those of my grandparents, which has helped me reimagine this process and contextualize all the chaos. #wwii #nycliving

My article, "Dollface: The Material of Femininity" was published in the Fall '22 Special Issue of #MaterialCulture on Leisure and #Play. I feel flattered/thought it was a mistake to see my piece so prominently displayed on the homepage so, yes, I made a screen recording of it 😂
