We need to stop looking out for a single 'Enabling Act'. The unravelling of democracy is not a single thread pulled but many. But this one will make it into the summary table in the textbook of the future: www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Just had reason to remember asking @danpirarobizarro.bsky.social permission to use this cartoon for an IB history textbook about 15 years ago. Never thought it would become so relevant.

I loved this cartoon so much I asked Dan Piraro if I could include it in my history textbook. He agreed. We took the 101 off to make it more international.

This is from a school history book explaining how the Polish people's anti-political movement resisted the communist government in the 1970s and 80s. Perhaps it might be useful for US government employees at this moment: @rbreich.bsky.social

Sign-up to Notebook LM. Upload a handful of history books and watch what it does. The first thing I did was get it to teach me Hegel. I have been hooked ever since. For the revision podcasts, I uploaded my booklet and asked it to produce a podcast for 16 yo CLIL history students in Switzerland.
