We are proud and excited to announce the launch of our report, created in partnership with @africanofilter. This report serves as a spotlight, highlighting the glaring imbalances about whether Africans are considered experts in their own history. Click openrestitution.africa/reclaiming-res…

Update, update.. read all about it!

@AylwynWalsh @TheFunambulist_ @STCsociowarwick @mjunaidr Thank you so much for coming!

We and Social Theory Centre at the University of Warwick (@STCsociowarwick) are honored to invite you to a conversation between Rose Miyonga (@RMiyonga) and Mohamad Junaid (@mjunaidr) that examines settler colonial land dispossession and extractivism in Kenya and Kashmir.

Thrilled to be a part of this conversation. Happening today over zoom - pls join us!

Very special to be a part of making this episode alongside @nktgill, @NielsBoender and John Lonsdale. Give it a listen. CW: we talk about violence, including sexual violence.

@nktgill That is definitely not embarrassing. I have cried in several archives and libraries. It's heavy stuff and it takes emotional work to look at it.

Wholesale transferring of dehumanised peoples deemed disposable to regions deemed less worthy is not just a Nazi idea. It's also a colonial idea, predating Nazism. Your reminder, along with concentration camps, that Nazism & British Empire had significant ideological overlaps.

"The lawsuit by @MCzerwienski, @LiliaKilburn, and @amulyamandava ... may present an opportunity for this generation to begin to forge a new model for academia, in which solidarity isn’t just about protecting one’s powerful friends." africasacountry.com/2022/02/letter…

Excited for this one! @TheFunambulist_

@HistMemEmo @Debadrita99 Thank you so much for having me!

We had a wonderful time at the workshop on Tuesday! We heard @Debadrita99's fascinating paper on Swarnakumari Devi's novel 'An Unfinished Song', and @RMiyonga's brilliant paper on the emotional history of Mau Mau. Please join us next on the 8th February!

LENT TERMCARD OUT NOW! We have such an exciting line-up for this term, with two sessions co-hosted with @CamGendSexHist and @CamCulturalHist! Join us *tomorrow* to hear papers from the brilliant @RMiyonga and @Debadrita99! On Zoom and in Cambridge History Faculty, Room 9.

Very excited to be heading out to FOMU Antwerp next month to discuss the 'Unhistories' photography project, and my own research on Mau Mau memories in Kenya with @maxpinckers. fomu.be/en/calendar/ta…

@oliviawyatt1999 @LeedsUniHistory Congratulations ✨

I’m delighted to share that I’ve received the Outstanding Achievement Award and the Marion Sharples Prize for the highest overall average and the best dissertation in the cohort! Many thanks to my friends and tutors who made my time at @LeedsUniHistory so wonderful 🎉❤️

Rest in power, bell hooks. You taught me so much: about embodied scholarship, about radical love, about revolutionary life. I feel so grateful and so sad.
