I’m also looking for playground recs for my 7year old (or potential playmates!)

And let me know if anyone will be in town March 20- April 15. I’ll mostly be at the AIU archives and La Courneuve

Heading to Paris after too many years away and need to refresh my recs- best bookstores?

Seems about as effective as injecting bleach

I'm so sorry to hear this, Tiffany. FWIW, my students are reading your "Distant Ties"chapter on May Ayim, and it's consistently one of their favorite readings of the term. You've done such an important service to us all in your work, and I want to thank you. Please take care of yourself

If I could change one piece of the discourse-that-drives-policy it’d be to underscore that higher education is not only a benefit to the individual but to all of us. It’s a collective good.

The cover of the forthcoming book Colonial Negatives: Picturing History and Identity in Morocco by Patricia Goldsworthy. Bottom half of the image has an image of an oil seller in Fez surrounded by Muslim and Jewish Moroccans. The image highlights the religious diversity of the crowd, and demonstrates the dynamic nature of the Jewish district

I just got a copy of my cover for my forthcoming book! It features a postcard from Fez by the Moroccan Jewish photographer Joseph Bouhsira. Bouhsira was the first Moroccan to establish his own commercial photography studio, and many of his images featured the Jewish community in Fez.

I feel like Bob Blackman would be a great person to ask this (I know he was on twitter, but I can't seem to figure out if he's on bluesky)

Asking on behalf of a student: what is the best/any scholarship to read *in English* on the constitutional debates, and generally the legislative work of the Convention, in France in 1792? πŸ—ƒοΈ

This is an incredible work of trans-imperial history, which puts ideas of honour and revenge at the centre of a highly original analysis of colonial violence. I can't recommend @mark-condos.bsky.social' work too highly...

I am thrilled to have received the @jewishbookcouncil.bsky.social in category "Holocaust" for People without History Are Dust. My book was shortlisted alongside books by colleagues whom I respect and whom I have been reading since I was a young student.

It's Publication Day! It was such a genuine pleasure to work on this important & timely volume w/ Bryan Banks & every one of our contributing authors. Amazing group of people, & I am just so pleased.

Get your copy of The Global Age of Revs, help spread the word, & consider assigning in your class!

New at the Iberian Colonial Repository: Catalogue of the microfilms from the Archivo General de Indias held at The Historic New Orleans Collection, from subsections Papeles de Cuba and Santo Domingo. If interested in Spanish sources about Louisiana, this will interest you.

I don’t know of any rule it would violate, but they aren’t assigning the book in class

Exactly! Terrible for students and faculty!

It adds additional steps and delays that are unnecessary and frankly challenging

Instead of purchasing them in advance, they purchase them as students order them. So students can’t walk in the first week of classes and walk out with their book- they order them from the bookstore, wait for them to be shipped to the bookstore, and then pick them up
