My review of Nicole Beth Wallenbrock's 'The Franco-Algerian War Through a Twenty-First Century Lens' is live now on H-War Reviews. A fascinating read for scholars interested in film history, decolonization, or historical memory. 🗃️ www.h-net.org/reviews/show...

This morning, I was describing Téléfrançais to a co-worker whose spouse is learning French & reminiscing about how ridiculous it looks by 2025 standards. I can't decide if l'Ananas is more haunting or endearing in retrospect

6 weeks of international travel is finally coming to an end. Excellent research in France & Morocco, plenty of exploration in between, and a terrific ESEH in Sweden to wrap things up.

Spending my last few days in Morocco back in Casablanca, including a visit to Hay Mohammadi, the site of Michel Écochard’s Carrières Centrales housing project and a major hub of anti-colonial resistance in the early 1950s.

Feels good to be back in Paris. Had some American friends come through on tour yesterday. Three more days at the Cité de l’architecture and then back to the frozen wasteland of Central NY
