Thank you for following this nascent #PublicHistorian as I learned to use #Bluesky for what I love doing: telling a good story.

The #HeistHistories we continue to share shape our understanding of ourselves and our relationship with institutions of power.

Question for #CivilWar #History, #NationalParks, #NationalForest, #PublicHistorian folk.
( to include @richcondon.bsky.social & @cwbc.bsky.social & @altnps.bsky.social ):
What impacts have DOGE/MAGA cuts had on #NationalBattlefield staffing, preservation, access, etc so far?

Als #PublicHistorian kann ich mich sehr auf den Film freue und vielmehr interessiert mich der ganze Diskurs darum aus der Histobubble. Who cares, ob Napoleon, die Pyramiden angeschossen hat? Ich lese lieber die ganzen Essays dazu, die über fehlende "historische Korrektheit" schreiben 😇

historians "tend to focus (sometimes pedantically) on what’s right or wrong with a given depiction. Instead, we’d like to see more historians taking these moments to discuss how we can really know anything about the past... & and then talk about why that past matters."
Napoleon, Historians, and a Silly Movie
Ok, yeah, fiction is fiction but people get their history from it

New on History@Work–#PublicHistorian and #archivist Dr. Rhonda D. Jones writes, “archiving Black Boston is not about nostalgia; it’s about possibility. It’s about asserting that our past is not a footnote to the city’s grand narrative but central to it.” #BostonHistory https://loom.ly/b_Hc-mE

This isn’t just about visibility. It’s about memory, belonging, and the right to have one’s story preserved.

New on History@Work. In a time of historical erasure, why should we focus on protecting digital encyclopedias? #PublicHistorian Emma Wiley makes “an argument for the basics.” #blog https://ncph.org/history-at-work/argument-for-the-basics-advocating-for-reference-projects-in-this-time-of-erasure/

In this time of erasure and censorship, basic historical reference resources remain crucial—yet often overlooked—tools in providing accessible and inclusive historical knowledge to the public.

Quantum Identities is here!
What began as a passion project 18 months ago turned into an incredible exhibit. This case represents over 39 oral histories, 15 written histories & 25 curated objects. Honoring and preserving stories that mattered.

Hey #archaeology and #publichistorian friends I'm looking for a writing accountability buddy for today. I've been trying to do more academic writing this year. I kinda reminded an editor that having author publication fees no matter what literally would gate keep me out of the conversation.
