I know I'm in the minority on this, but Red Country was my favorite of the "stand-alone" trilogy.
I use it every day. Losing it would be an extreme hindrance to our work.
Many ADE projects have received essential support from the NEH, and their work will be inhibited through the loss of previously awarded grants. Please see the NHA call to action:
The AHA has released a statement in support of the Smithsonian Institution, the target of the recent EO, “Restoring Truth and Sanity to American History.” This order “egregiously misrepresents the work of the Smithsonian Institution” and “completely misconstrues the nature of historical work.” 🗃️
UPDATE: Since many institutions and projects face uncertain budgets at the moment, the ADE will meet remotely starting at 1 p.m. Eastern/10 a.m. Pacific Time on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, June 16 through 18, 2025. Check out the revised Call for Papers: www.documentaryediting.org/wordpress/?p...
"The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, selfappointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny." - Federalist 47 (Madison)
Call for Papers for this year's Annual Meeting! The ADE invites proposals on the theme of “Editing for Access: Audiences and Technologies” or any topic related to the editing, publication, and recovery of texts. Submissions are due March 1, 2025. For more: www.documentaryediting.org/wordpress/?p...
