Dr. Jessica D Klanderud

I'm super excited that my roundtable was accepted for @ASALH 2024- a roundtable on Black Pittsburgh w/ @DKlanderud, @LeeCilli, @aaronbcowan & the OG, Joe Trotter. Pencil it in, "Place, Politics, and the Future of Black Pittsburgh History"! #Blackpittsburgh #BlackHistory

Loved hearing @DKlanderud reassert a community's right to its own stories, calling out academics who research local communities & then publish their version as "the history". Ethics, humility, and respect--great tools for teaching how to learn from and with people. #UHA2023

👋🏾 to the UNC Press authors attending #ASALH2023, including Amrita Chakrabarti Myers @CountessCanuck, @ZebulonMiletsky, Jessica Klanderud @DKlanderud, Francoise Hamlin @DrFHamlin, and Edward Onaci @onaci7! uncpress.org/asalh-virtual-…

"The law also forbids public colleges from offering general education courses ... [that teach] that systemic racism, sexism, oppression, or privilege are inherent in the institutions of the United States..." This is a death blow. Here's what happens next...

Now open: Hornsby Award for best unpublished, original essay by Black woman undergrad in History or related field. Essay & required materials due to abwhhornsby@gmail.com by 6/30 @ 11:59 p.m. ET (no exceptions). Full details abwh.org/awards/lillian…. #ABWHHornsby2023 @abwhtruth

@LorienTinuviel I'm just confusing to people. I took my husband's Swedish last name, but he's Black, Swedish, and Indigenous. I'm a Black biracial woman working in Black studies with a Swedish last name. It's been interesting...

@KingShannon23 @UNC_Press @DGershenowitz @Bri_P_History @SimonBalto Congratulations!

Excited to sharing my forthcoming book w @UNC_Press 1/16/24 Many, many thanks for encouragement and support of @DGershenowitz and the the generous blurbs from two brilliant scholars @Bri_P_History and @SimonBalto #thepoliticsofsafety #newyorkhistory #blacklivesmatter

@a_m_ribeiro Thanks, Alyssa. You have a citation in chapter 7.

@DKlanderud Congrats!!

I just got the pictures of my advanced copies of Struggle for the Street! I am in love! Shout out to the design department at UNC Press. Grab your pre-order at your favorite bookseller.

@SocScholarCR Thank you! I hope you enjoy it.

It's official! Struggle for the Street is out in the world! I'm so excited to share more about how social networks in Black neighborhoods influenced the Civil rights movement. This wasn't just a phenomenon in Pittsburgh.

@dariusjyoung Thank you! I appreciate your support.

@DKlanderud Congrats!

@YesHunter @CulturedModesty I teach a class called Do no harm? A Black history of Medicine and Technology. I have a whole syllabus if your friend is interested.

Also shout out to Teenie Harris' beautiful photography. His archive is held at the @cmoa Carnegie museum of art in Pittsburgh.

@JohannNeem @benjamingwright @jacob_bruggeman @AHAhistorians I don't think I'm going back to AHA any time soon. One thing that will need to happen is addressing the gross elitism present in a lot of attendees. Your colleagues who work at community college or undergrad institutions or adjunct are just as good as their ivy counterparts.

Thank you @jacob_bruggeman for referring to the @AHAhistorians panel I chaired on labor in the history profession. It's an important topic- but I must credit @benjamingwright for putting together this panel on such an important topic. chronicle.com/article/down-a…

Btw, I organized the panel by enlisting scholars from whom I've learned a lot about both the problem and potential solutions. I recommend following and reading @erin_bartram, @DKlanderud, @varsha_venkat_, and @JohannNeem.

We can't wait to read this by @DKlanderud! Struggle for the Street: Social Networks & the Struggle for Civil Rights in Pittsburg. #NewBooks @UNC_Press #Preorder #blktwitterstorians #CivilRights #twitterstorians #socialnetworks
