@audacityofdespair.bsky.social & Eric Overmyer co-created, in Treme, not only my favorite TV show, but one of our truly transcendent cultural works, about one of our most real, most American at our worst & best & most special cities. In so doing they helped create a vital new genre as well. 🗃️

The Secret Agent sticks with you and has a lot to say to historians—not even chiefly about 1977 Brazil but about research, memory, audience, and maybe most of all, narratives that don’t or can’t resolve. 🗃️

For the brunch crowd, here’s today’s thread. Please share widely to get all this great work to all the folks, thanks! 🗃️ @chanda.blacksky.app

What happens when wealthy, determined women raise money—and attach conditions? What historians call “coercive philanthropy.” Today’s Women’s History Month post tells the story of Mary Elizabeth Garrett and women who forced Johns Hopkins Medical School to admit women. 🗃️ https://tinyurl.com/5n6mc7n5

🗃️I fell in love with The Washington Post in 1982. For half a century, it was among the best all-around papers in the country. Jeff Bezos has destroyed a great American institution just when we most need good journalism to hold the powerful to account. ehlersoneverything.blogspot.com/2026/03/the-...

Six non-consecutive months of job losses. But we had to get rid of Biden because of the economy. Got it. 👍🏻

Where is Michelle Obama? She's not at the Jesse Jackson memorial.

A new study found that billions fewer #birds are flying through North America compared to a decade ago, and populations are shrinking faster than ever. Even so, a Republican-led House committee is holding a hearing today as part of a plan to undermine the #MigratoryBirdTreatyAct. bit.ly/4rlxx7G

If this holds, this is the best result for Texas Democrats. Talarico is winning counties with high Hispanic populations (Bexar, Hildago). If Dems want to have a chance at Texas, they need to rebuild their coalition in once reliably blue Hispanic border counties.

Today’s Women’s History Month interview: Allison Tyra of Infinite Women (9,000+ biographies and counting). We talk patterns, stolen credit, patriarchal cover-ups — and how to confront bias in historical sources (including our own). Read here: https://tinyurl.com/y2sfmu4z More tomorrow. 🗃️

If you're voting in Texas today, I urge you to vote for @jamestalarico.bsky.social in the Senate primary. He would make an incredible Senator. Jasmine Crockett is a great spokesperson, but she's in the pocket of the crypto industry. We don't need more Senators who are bought by crypto bros.

You always know when Women's History Month starts because of @pdtoler.bsky.social's annual blog series. Don't miss reading about the people who do the work of women's history. 🗃️ #WomensHistoryMonth www.historyinthemargins.com/2026/03/02/t...
