So I’ve had my 1st Black History Month event cancellation because of “DEI concerns,” citing a fear of frivolous suits. Funny thing is, I don’t do DEI, I’m a historian of the Black American experience. A reminder that DEI is just a dog whistle about suppressing history, if you need a reminder.

Relieved to be wrapping up this semester which was...a lot. A bright spot for me has been working with my "History of Latinxs in the US" class on a project abt the history of Latinx people in Durham, NC. They created a Zine with their research available here: drive.google.com/file/d/1kdZZ...

A convo with @paperbacksfrybread.bsky.social, an indie bookstore in #NorthCarolina that centers on Indigenous stories.
Calling it just a bookstore is an injustice though. It’s also a curated collection of Native history, culture, and support for banned books.

Doing historical research isn’t just an intellectual enterprise; it’s emotional and embodied.
I legit almost threw up earlier this morning while researching etymology related to the year 1712.
If you’re a historian and/or do archival research, how do you handle the SHOCK of revelation?
