When I talk about academic blogs that demonstrate the capacity of that form, I lead with @nursingclio.bsky.social. When I think of academics who model the potential of the para-academic pathway, I think of @lmansley.bsky.social. Anyway, read this.
I'm incredibly moved by this piece by @lmansley.bsky.social in AHA's Perspectives on History. I've watched Laura's professional track over the years and I've been proud to be a small part of her journey. Please read and share widely! I also think it's an important piece to share with grad students.
