Country fans are upset with Zach Bryan after he criticized ICE in a song.

History’s heroes were too often chosen by those with power.

The NYT’s “Overlooked” series restores the women and people of color left out—like Henrietta Lacks, whose cells changed medicine but whose name was nearly lost.

‘Industries’, which rely on theft, are better known as criminal concerns. Fortunately this form of lawlessness is illegal in the EU. Companies indulging in it should be putting many billions aside for the fines. Copyright theft is illegal & artists’ bodies are tracking it.

We were talking about the lynching plotline in Marrow of Tradition in Am Lit II today, & I got to share @eji.org's map, the Without Sanctuary exhibit, Ida B. Wells, & the work of @kidadaewilliams.com as part of the conversation. This work we do is damn important.🗃️

Polling so far suggests Americans blame the party in power, Republicans, for the federal government shutdown. In keeping with virtually all recent historical polling evidence...in general, the blaming of the party in power only increases as effects of the shutdown worsen & hurt more🗃️ USA Today

I am excited to teach The Memory of '76 by @michaelhattem.bsky.social in my early American grad seminar tomorrow. It will be a new staple for the course because it is concise, eloquent, provocative, and a survey of popular and academic historiography. 🗃️

Well. This has stirred us over our (ok, 3rd or 4th) cuppa.
