Thanks to the brilliant organizational efforts by Domale Dube, today at @ualberta.bsky.social we had the amazing treat of hearing Erika Edwards talk about her next book project on Afro-descendent women in Argentina from the 18th to the 21st centuries. FASCINATING!

Congratulations to Lucy Riall for winning the Special Jury Prize from the Risorgimento Istitute for profoundly innovating understandings of the Italian Risorgimento in a more European and global context. She’s not just a friend; she’s a model. This is so deserved. www.risorgimento.it/2025/11/17/p...

What I love about entering a new institution: reading amazing work by my new colleagues. Having lunch with Jim Muir today. And I’m eager to admit: I like what I’m reading.
