If you haven't read it, I'd strongly recommend Amy Kaplan's book OUR AMERICAN ISRAEL on the development of the special relationship between Israel and the U.S. since 1948 - Amy was a fearless and brilliant scholar, and this book is necessary reading right now

A reading suggestion: @michaelgvann.bsky.social's reflections on his experience of writing a scholarly comic book. "There needs to be a good reason to put academic work into the comic form. As Marshall McLuhan would put it, there should be synergy between medium and message."

The "anniversary" of the coup always brings alot of attention to the situation in Myanmar which is good but alot of people / media / countries who pop up don't really comment the rest of the year. More sustained attention & support is needed. Tis the reasons I built the #whatshappeninginmyanar feed

The ❤️ wants what it wants - I asked my co-hosts at Pusat Sejarah Rakyat (the People's History Centre) in Malaysia what I should speak about while here, so it's round 12 of Bandung, with responses from incredible activists on how transnational activism changed in the 70s/80s and beyond...

Will be very interested to see this next fall. It’s a welcome departure for the IWM exhibition hall and could set the standard for a new public history of British decolonization www.iwm.org.uk/events/emerg...

I wrote an essay on decolonization talk for Aeon Magazine, sparked in part by the seemingly odd image search results for 'decolonization' when making posters for Ohio State's International History Seminar last year. @mershoncenter.bsky.social @osuhistory.bsky.social aeon.co/essays/what-...

There are many layers here, but I want to comment on one aspect of these findings for now--the editorial board representation. Some will see this and immediately think: we need to get more POC on our boards! I understand that impulse, but encourage you to think a few steps down the game tree 1/n.
