@JohannNeem @AmHistReview This piece deserves what it dishes out: bold yet thoughtful, gracious, and humble engagement with nuanced perspectives on a complex issue. Are historians up to the task? Will the Twitterverse reveal the answer? Stay tuned to @JohannNeem's feed!

@profsamperry If not for academic conferences, I never would have been invited to the Marriott Bonvoy rewards program or earned Sky Priority status with Delta. Also think my conference-going has resulted in publication opportunities. But writing off travel expenses & getting rewards is nice.

Do you care about #history, #literature, #civics, #poetry, #jurisprudence, #localculture, #culturalheritage, #language, or any of the ways humans understand each other and themselves? Ask your Representatives and Senators to fund the @NEHgov at at least $211 million.
