If anyone is planning their semester and wants to add some Antarctica content, I am available to Zoom in, especially before March! Feel free to reach out.
I love seeing you as your full self! Sending you lots of love and support
Ugh, okay fine.
Look: it's on sale ($10.46 in paperback)!
Also: it fits in a stocking!
Also also: it demonstrates that Paris 1919 is, despite nearly all appearances, a great Christmas album!

It’s the first Fall in about 30 years that I’m not preparing to “head back to school” in some capacity. Lots of mixed emotions that I’m sure will be fun to work through. 🥸
Sending all my good energy to the folks heading back to the classroom!

Public servants, historians, and frontline interpreters are trained professionals who do everything in their power to connect visitors with the stories which make up our complicated national fabric. Yet we are consistently in the crosshairs of those who are waging war on history and intellectualism.
Just like in the parks, safety comes first.
- Stay with your group
- Follow the signs (or in this case, the facts)
- Leave no one behind
- Document everything
- Don’t engage alone
Almost a year after a brilliant research trip to Belfast, conducting oral histories with folks who were so generous with their time and story, and a major job change I think I’m ready to start writing again.

I haven’t been a member of the AHA for a number of years and I am happy to not have wasted my money.
What a cowardly act.
If it's possible for a civilization to die from a widespread loss of empathy, we're witnessing the death knells in real time.
I have no idea how the AHA membership breaks down on this issue but I will say that refusing to adopt a position specifically because you fear the wrath of a political party is not “staying apolitical,” it is making an explicitly political calculation and basing your organization’s position on that.
My book, John Cale’s Paris 1919, for the 33 1/3 series. Pub date: Feb 6.

would you be well!! €1,700 to hear a number of male historians and Ryan Tubridy in Ashford Castle - not a female historian in sight! It’s not a history festival, it’s a #manel history festival #womenknowhistorytoo www.independent.ie/regionals/ma...
It’s the worst! And if you are lucky enough to get funding from a university its almost alway through reimbursement so you are out $1000 plus until paperwork is sorted
Where are the museum unionizing folks on this app? Those are the folks I want to be connected with going into this repeat of a former era
Looking forward to this!
Here's the start of gathering a bunch of fantastic public historians' accounts together.
