I really enjoyed our panel. Didi's and my paper both explored the characteristics and "usefulness" of fictional and fabricated sources and emphasized that Jewish history is also part of German-American history. Many thanks to @drjanaweiss.bsky.social for providing the comment! #migrationhistory

Watch the AHA’s Congressional Briefing on the history of tariffs on C-SPAN. Panelists @douglasirwin.bsky.social, @sharonannmurphy.bsky.social, & @rauchway.bsky.social discussed how the government has implemented tariffs in the past & how they have impacted the economy. 🗃️

What a fantastic conference! Thanks to @danstein2025.bsky.social and his team for organizing #dgfa2025. And many many thanks to @drjanaweiss.bsky.social for organizing our roundtable on German-American archives which explored the value of ethnic archives and linking different digital collections.

Second day of "Disciplinary Transformations" by @chnunn.bsky.social starts with the "Dark Sides of DH." First up was Alíz Horváth showing us the multilingual transformations of DH over the last few years. We are more multilingual than we think! #multilingualism #multilinguality

#letstalkabouttheory! @tesstess.bsky.social explores how theory has become more visible in DH. BUT, it was never absent. #thingsareinmotion

Christof Schöch kicks off with reflections on 10 years of DHd. Institutionally, DH is a discipline. BUT in practice, it’s more complex.

@chnunn.bsky.social opens our conference „Disciplinary Transformations?“ We will discuss how H have impacted DH. @uniheidelberg.bsky.social

Just a few more days to apply for our conference, "Rebuild or Retreat." Recent events across Europe (record heatwaves, widespread floods) and the U.S. (27 individual weather and climate disasters at least $1 billion in damages in 2024) underscore the urgency of climate migration and mobility. 👇

If you have time, how about identifying racial covenants in U.S. property records? It's simple: all you need to do, is answer some questions and transcribe the racial covenant sentence(s).
