It was truly inspiring to both listen to Dr. Vincent Brown’s lecture and have the opportunity to act as a teacher’s assistant for the event. The National Humanities Center’s webinar series is fantastic. @NatlHumanities

It was such an honor to earn a position on the National Humanities Center Teacher Advisory Council, and an even bigger one to join such brilliant educators from across the country in a humanities community. Our work has only begun, but I know that this journey will be powerful.

I know I'm on History Twitter when every. Single. Person. On my feed essentially goes "dude, you NEVER fuck with the archivists." Because. . . You just don't.
