Looking for suggestions for secondary readings on COINTELPRO and the Young Lords, anyone written anything or have anything to share? (Obviously already have the brilliant Johanna Fernández in the mix)

📣 Are you doing Latino Public History in your classrooms? I want to talk! 🙋‍♀️ I'm building a new class & want to talk to folks who have tried this in their classroom (succesful or not!) & how to build out shareable tools for us to all be able to do these projects in our classes. Please share widely! 💫

So I’ve had my 1st Black History Month event cancellation because of “DEI concerns,” citing a fear of frivolous suits. Funny thing is, I don’t do DEI, I’m a historian of the Black American experience. A reminder that DEI is just a dog whistle about suppressing history, if you need a reminder.

A convo with @paperbacksfrybread.bsky.social, an indie bookstore in #NorthCarolina that centers on Indigenous stories. Calling it just a bookstore is an injustice though. It’s also a curated collection of Native history, culture, and support for banned books. cardinalpine.com/2024/11/27/d...

Doing historical research isn’t just an intellectual enterprise; it’s emotional and embodied. I legit almost threw up earlier this morning while researching etymology related to the year 1712. If you’re a historian and/or do archival research, how do you handle the SHOCK of revelation?

Does anyone have any good resources for first-gen students getting a PhD? Any books, podcasts, articles, social media accounts etc. that I can share with students to help demystify academia and the process would be super appreciated 💖
