It has been just an absolutely tragic past few days. #RIP to a GREAT transformational leader Vince Ford. He will be missed by all who knew him.

Two years ago, Elijah McClain, who loved playing the violin, was walking home from the store carrying iced tea. He never made it home. Now, the officers who put the 23-year-old in a chokehold and the paramedics who injected him with ketamine are facing charges.

Today is the anniversary of Sandy Hook. That today is not a national day of mourning—that we have had so many school shootings that our calendars would be filled with days of mourning were we to truly grieve these losses—tells you everything you need to know about our priorities.
Does anyone know of any early American medical accounts that feature or examine phobias in children or adults?#twitterstorians
Important research and moving piece by @feyero!
Enslaved children were used to incubate and reproduce smallpox vaccine. In choosing enslaved children, "colonial officials hoped to eradicate both disease and evidence of the violence of slavery."
Powerful piece by @feyero. Check it out. ageofrevolutions.com/2020/12…

The momentum is real! @FatahBlack thanks so much for highlighting this new explosion in slavery research and for your own incredible work!
This book is so amazing and incredibly important! @ACMosterman I so thrilled and can't wait to assign it to my students and share it widely!!!
Yay. My book now actually has a title and publication date. There’s still lots to do, but if all goes well Spaces of Enslavement: A History of Slavery and Resistance in Dutch New York will come out October 15, 2021!
