ALSO. ALSO. Needing us to find Europeans who condemned him for his actions at the time--and there are many! So many! My God so many!--is also some white supremacist bullshit, because the TAINO PEOPLE HE WAS MURDERING CERTAINLY CONDEMNED HIM FOR IT AND THEY WERE HUMAN BEINGS OF HIS TIME TOO.
Christopher Columbus was dragged back to Spain in chains by a crusading knight, convicted of tyranny and immeasurable cruelty, pardoned by Isabella but banned from returning to Hispaniola.
Fuck Columbus.
Fuck Columbus.

The WPHP had an amazing project team ❤️ Michelle, Kandice @kandicedarcia.bsky.social, and Kate @kkatemoffatt.bsky.social let me work with them because I showed up one day, and I am a much stronger bibliographer and scholar for it.
I really enjoyed reading these really lovely and helpful reflections from Michelle Levy and Kandice Sherran on the Women's Print History Project and its work over the last decade. I always point students to it (and @grubstreetwomen.bsky.social's work) +

Being sincere in public sets off my fight-or-flight response, but adding my favourite meme of all time to the social media posts helps.
For our final spotlight in the Research in Reflection series, join PI Michelle Levy and Lead Editor Kandice Sharren as they muse on 10 years of the WPHP—their regrets, their accomplishments, and how they have tried to keep the humans involved at the forefront of of the project: tinyurl.com/23ajexte

Kate's turn!
In Kate’s contribution to our “Research in Reflection Series” she reflects on how the WPHP (delightfully, inevitably) shaped her her PhD work—and provided her with the opportunity to drop books in the British Library. Oops. Read about her ongoing love story with the WPHP here: tinyurl.com/5k55cpxm

A while back I saw a blog post linked to on here about the hidden curriculum in humanities grad programs, and I cannot for the life of me find it now! I was planning to assign it! Does this sound familiar to anyone else? (It had tips like "read strategically" iirc).
