Screenshot of Wen Zhang's article in the collection profiles section of 'Paper Trails: The Social Life of Archives and Collections' (published by UCL Press). The article includes illustrations from the textbook showing racialised portrayals of Chinese people and narratives of British superiority.

Great to Wen Zhang's article “They Are ‘Bad’, ‘Barbaric’ and ‘Different’: The Construction of #Chinese Otherness”publishd in 'Paper Trails'. It uses the 'Harmsworth History of the World' from the @ioelibrary.bsky.social #HistoricalTextbooks #SpecColl. ucldigitalpress.co.uk/BOOC/Article... #HistEd

By coincidence, I’ll be in visiting family in Huntington Beach when RBMS is in Costa Mesa and ALA is in San Diego.
