Here's Debbie Doyle, meetings manager, and Jake Purcell, meetings and programming associate. Simply put, they run the annual meeting. Throw a smile or a thank you their way if you run into them.

On July 28, the AHA will host a Congressional Briefing that places the issue of immigration along the southern US border in historical context. @gerry_cadava, @NaraMilanich, and Mae Ngai will present historical perspectives on the southwestern border. historians.org/news-and-advo…

#twitterstorians: for a methods course for an MA program, what would be your rec for a book about doing public history, museum studies, etc?
(I used to have a deep biblio for this course, but it's way out of date--help!)
TIA!
Ice cream for lunch today with some @AHAhistorians colleagues ☺️ @lmansley @mapper_mundi @AlexandraFL21 @llbrand88 @AlanaVenable
