I am a child of WIC. My mother collected benefits for my sister & me while she returned to vocational school. These benefits bridged the nutritional gap and allowed us to continue to develop while my mom was very poor & seeking education and opportunity. +

Drafting the Past is back! First up, an interview with James Tejani about his book, A MACHINE TO MOVE OCEAN AND EARTH (@wwnorton.bsky.social). This chat surprised and inspired me, from James' view of himself as a writer to how tendinitis changed his work. Listen: draftingthepast.com/podcast-epis...

🎧📻 — I’m delighted to be a guest, on the Fragile Juggernaut CIO labor-history podcast. On the ‘Reconversion’ episode — we talked about the historic mid-1940s, the end of WW2, and the biggest strike wave ever. #1u — #LaborHistory podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/r...

Howard Zinn wrote his autobiography in response to these timeless questions: Is change possible? Where will it come from? Can we actually make a difference? How do you remain hopeful? #RestInPeace @keeanga.bsky.social

I ask students to write about their first encounters with civil rights history for their first assignment. Of course, they often talk about MLK and Rosa Parks, but I also receive a lot of critiques (from mostly white students) of their education systems for barely discussing the movement.

In my Book, Conditioned to DREAM: The Broken Promises of Higher Education for Undocumented Latinx Students (under contract with @uncpress.bsky.social), I look at how undocumented students in NC navigated this educational context in a state where the suspicion of illegality is ever-present. 10/10

The USAF has reversed itself "after uproar." We must continue to pay attention. We must continue to preserve & share the stories of the Tuskegee Airmen & the Women Airforce Service Pilots. I promised them I would always tell their stories. You can too. Knowledge is power! www.msn.com/en-us/news/u...

PBS is now live on Prime — ad-free — and you don't need a subscription to watch. This marks the first time this programming will be available *free* on a major streaming service. Channels include PBS Drama, Documentaries, Kids + live feeds for 150 local stations www.pbs.org/articles/str... #TVSky

Colleagues: If you're teaching this Spring, please let me know if I can help. Happy to talk with your students about immigration, free speech, ideological exclusion & deportation, Cold War/McCarthyism, War on Terror, and Threat of Dissent. 🗃️ @harvardpress.bsky.social www.amazon.com/gp/product/0...

Folks trying to kill Black and women's history, but they won't be successful because you can't actually kill knowledge. Even white slaveowners were unsuccessful with trying to keep enslaved people from learning to read

The USAF removed Tuskegee Airmen & Women Airforce Service Pilots of WWII from basic training curriculum. For 30 years I promised these women I would not let them ever be forgotten again. We worked for decades to have them remembered. The Airmen too. Knowledge is power. 🗃️ www.msn.com/en-us/societ...

#OTD on January 23, 2016, @bullockmuseum.bsky.social opened the bilingual exhibit “Life and Death on the Border.” It offered an unflinching look at the role of the #TexasRangers in the 1910s border violence. /1 www.thestoryoftexas.com/visit/exhibi...

"We need the historian and philosopher to give us with trenchant pen, the story of our forefathers, and let our soul & body, with phosphorescent light, brighten the chasm that separates us." ― Arturo Schomburg, born #tdih 1874 in Santurce, Puerto Rico Read⬇️ www.zinnedproject.org/news/tdih/ar...
