Great article about the importance of American Studies from @DrSarahTrott @YSJHistory @YSJAmStuds @YorkStJohn: theconversation.com/american-studi…

Trump's rhetoric on expansion is based on long-standing imperial designs that are linked to a hegemony-facilitating interpretation of the Monroe Doctrine. See for example this map from a 1915 issue of Seven Seas, a magazine produced by the Navy League of the United States.

On 11 March 2025 @Serena_Dyer will be in conversation with @historymatt about his new book: Shoes and the Georgian Man. Come along to hear about what footwear tells us about men and their bodies in the long eighteenth century. Book your free place: eventbrite.com/e/in-conversat…

U.S. imperialism at its finest.

We have long insisted casualisation in HE is inextricably linked with racial inequalities. This is starkly illustrated by @UniofNottingham's decision recruit a TA to convene modules on anticolonial struggle, via a part-time, six-month, casual contract #WeAreUoN

Looking forward to a great #DMUOpenDay today. Our Dr Dave Dee and Prof. @pippavirdee are doing a History subject talk at 10.45 followed by Q+A 1-3pm. Come along and say hello! dmu.ac.uk/study/courses/…

Even as a politics lecturer in a Middle East department, I am lost. Israel has a right to self defence, but Lebanon does not? Israelis have the right to be safe, but Palestinians do not? Iran can’t launch missiles into civilian areas, but Israel can? None of this is coherent.

2 years ago today, ‘ANDOR’ premiered.

A message from our General Secretary and President to all UCU members: “As a union, our duty is to take the fight against racism and fascism into every workplace and community we have a foothold in. There will always be those who organise–from above and from below–to divide us and sow hatred. As educators and trade unionists, we will work tirelessly to defeat them."    ➡️ tinyurl.com/3c2r56nt
