During our three-week field trip inventorizing archival, material, and oral history sources for researching #histories of #nursing in #Suriname, we visited the former leprosy hospital Batavia (1824-1897) today. We found an image of the shed in which patients were nursed and cared for.

To mark the centenary of James Baldwin, I wrote a short essay for @TheLancet. On what he's taught me about responding to pushback.
To beware of "strategic ignorance" and "the imaginary line of selective judgment".
