When public debate feels loud and shallow, we need disciplines that reward depth, evidence, and context. The humanities and social sciences train people to slow down, analyze, and think clearly. #TalkAboutHumanities #TalkAboutSocialSciences

🔥 We need more specialists on Eastern Europe & Eurasia! In an increasingly globalized world, area studies expertise is more important than ever. 👏 Join us! 👉 For details, see: aseees.org/news/join-as... #TalkAboutSocialSciences #TalkAboutHumanities #aseees

We need digital humanities because knowledge only matters if people can access it. Access to scholarly resources should not depend on geography, privilege, or institutional walls. When we remove barriers, we turn preservation into participation. #TalkAboutHumanities

We need philosophers because they teach us how to think deeply and clearly about the most fundamental questions: what matters, what’s true, and how we should live. #TalkAboutHumanities

We’re happy to participate in the @acls1919.bsky.social campaign to #TalkAboutHumanities and #TalkAboutSocialSciences! Here are some responses from our authors and editors about the importance of experts in these fields.

#TalkAboutSocialSciences #TalkAboutHumanities #aseees

We need more humanists & social scientists because these are the fields that help us understand each other across different cultures, languages, and beliefs. #TalkAboutHumanities #TalkAboutSocialSciences

According to Humanities Indicators, humanities majors work across a wide range of sectors, earn substantially more than non-degree holders, & report high job satisfaction. The "unemployable humanities grad" is a myth. We need more humanists. #TalkAboutHumanities #TalkAboutSocialSciences

We need historians because evidence doesn’t explain itself. Context does not simply exist. It is built through research, interpretation, and critical analysis. What stories have you uncovered in the historical record? #TalkAboutHumanities 🗃️

We need more specialists on Eastern Europe and Eurasia! In an increasingly globalized world, area studies expertise is more important than ever. This week, ASEEES is joining ACLS to #TalkAboutHumanities and #TalkAboutSocialSciences. #TalkAboutSocialSciences #TalkAboutHumanities #aseees

Join us this week as we share the importance of experts in the humanities & social sciences. Why do we need more historians, anthropologists, philosophers, sociologists, religious studies scholars, literary scholars? Share your answer with #TalkAboutHumanities #TalkAboutSocialSciences

"Society needs specialized humanities research—research that delves deeply into literary, linguistic, or cultural topics," says @paulakrebs.bsky.social. We need to invest in humanities research for the advancement of society. #TalkAboutHumanities

Language shapes everything, from how we think to how we connect and innovate. Linguists are essential to understanding communication, and to creating ethical, responsible AI. We need more linguists. #TalkAboutSocialSciences #TalkAboutHumanities

We need historians because the past is never just the past. Every policy debate, public conversation, and cultural shift is shaped by what came before. Historians help us understand context, trace change over time, and recognize what’s at stake. #TalkAboutHumanities 🗃️

ASEEES is excited to join @acls1919.bsky.social to #TalkAboutHumanities and #TalkAboutSocialSciences this week. Our message is simple: we need more humanities and social sciences scholars and research. Join us! See: aseees.org/.../join-ase... #TalkAboutSocialSciences #TalkAboutHumanities #aseees
