I did a study of historical memes in a chapter of my phd dissertation two years ago
I can’t wait for historical meme study to become a thing. Like, once people who engage in the study won’t possibly have been alive long enough to understand them firsthand.
when will the lesson finally get learned? #cloudflare

Finally!

My new book Boarding Schools and the Indigenous Story is a comprehensive history of the efforts of the US government to remove native children from their families, from colonization to today. For middle grades, but for everyone.

The scale of the damage at the British Library is difficult to fathom from the outside. Working in the wreckage of the hack has made me even less sanguine about the digital age into which we have leapt feet first.
I’ve written a piece on the curious lack of media and political interest in the issues faced by our national @britishlibrary.bsky.social. This is strange given we live in a world where ideas, knowledge and research are a long-term source of innovation and insight

The British library is in crisis: why does nobody care?
The widespread indifference to the British Library's crippling cyberattack demonstrates a perilous failure to value the knowledge infrastructure vital for national prosperity
