«A principios de la década de 1920, la austeridad funcionó como una poderosa contraofensiva a las huelgas y otras formas de descontento social que estallaron a una escala sin precedentes tras la guerra —un periodo que siempre ha sido extrañamente ignorado por los politólogos y economistas que

As it's nearly #InternationalWomensDay, it's a good time to highlight an international woman (in a fabulous hat) French anarcho-syndicalist Madame Sorgue, also known as Antoinette Cauvin, is shown here at the head of a hunger march of strikers from the East End of London during the 1912 dock strike

Cutting from a newspaper published in 1912. 'French Socialist leads women hunger marchers. Another hunger march of strikers took place yesterday, large contingents of men, women and children making their way to Tower Hill from various parts of the East End. Above, Mme. Sorgue, the well-known French Socialist, is seen marching at the head of the women." The cutting includes a photograph with Mme Sorgue at the centre, elegantly dressed, striding forward with her coat under one arm. She, like some of the other women around her, is wearing a large hat. Other marchers are shown in the photo, including some of the women and men from the East End of London. One woman has her arm through Mme Sorgue's, and several of the men are wearing what are probably trade union sashes. The cutting is included in a scrapbook from the archives of Tom Mann (document reference: MSS.334/7/3).

Así que la universidad pública ha estado tomada históricamente por la izquierda; discutible pero lógico, es un lugar donde campan a sus anchas la razón, el método científico y el pensamiento crítico. La derecha siempre ha sido más de los templos, la fe y el pensamiento mágico.

Why did some Africans embrace colonialism? In our latest article, me and Sishuwa Sishuwa look at the life of Godwin Mbikusita-Lewanika, who led Zambia's first anti-colonial nationalist party but later became a vocal supporter of colonial rule. Free to read: www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Screenshot of the abstract of an academic journal article.
The title reads: "The Colonial African: Godwin Mbikusita-Lewanika and His Struggle For and Against Zambian Nationalism"
Abstract reads:
"Godwin Mbikusita-Lewanika, the founding president of Zambia’s first nationalist organisation, is now remembered as a staunch supporter of colonial rule. Such figures are not uncommon and are often termed “loyalists,” a term that is usually understood in the literature as a fixed category that either dwindled in the face of racial oppression or was a choice shaped and hardened by conflict. Lewanika, however, moved easily between different sides, reinventing himself as an anticolonial nationalist, trade unionist, colonial loyalist, and Lozi traditional monarchist as circumstances warranted. The tumult of the mid-twentieth century opened up new opportunities and Lewanika seized roles that were not previously available. Biographies of anticolonial nationalists often argue they turned to political action when their education and ambitions clashed with the highly-circumscribed roles available under colonialism. Lewanika’s life was the opposite. He carved out a prominent place for himself in the colonial order and then in independent Zambia."

Writing tip no. 10: read and reread your sources until you hear voices, then write a deeply human story about your historical subjects. Readers want to learn about real people, making real choices, in real circumstances, in real time. Make your actors complex and multi-dimensional. "Humanize"!

Here's a full view of the cover, which I think came out rather nicely.
