See the open letter co-signed by over 300 scholars on the state-sponsored attacks against historian Grzegorz Rossoliński-Liebe. We stand against intimidation and for academic freedom. #AcademicFreedom #History #Holocaust #Poland

Many of you will already know that a new anti-fascist letter has been penned, signed, and published around the world as of this morning. Here is the letter, along with a link to the over 400 signatories, on the New Fascism Syllabus' website:

@adamblackler.bsky.social finds inspiration and a new urgency in I Shall Bear Witness – Victor Klemperer in His Time, and Ours. @newfascismsyllabus.bsky.social newfascismsyllabus.com/contribution...

Dr. @brianjgriffith.bsky.social -- one of NFS' two co-curators -- has just published an OpEd on @commondreams.org that explores the legal and political parallels between Benito #Mussolini's declaration of #dictatorship in January 1925 and Donald J. #Trump's re-election as POTUS. See the link below.

In his review of @jennifervevans.bsky.social's The Queer Art of History, Craig Griffiths explains that the study recalibrates our view of the queer and trans* past while acknowledging the complexities and inequalities that persisted after historical turning points.

In her review of @jennifervevans.bsky.social's The Queer Art of History, @ankahajkova.bsky.social explains that Evans challenges queer essentialism and uncovers complex narratives, like East German lesbians challenging the Stasi, offering insights into recent debates.

In recognition of Dr. Jennifer Evans' recently published monograph, The Queer Art of History (out on Duke Press), the NFS editorial team, along with Dr. Anna Hájková, organized a roundtable discussion among other scholars of German Queer Studies. Enjoy!
