A delicate sequinned silk evening dress, the colours of a clockwork hummingbird in an Oscar Wilde fairytale, dusky blue and foam green, encrusted with gold, made in Paris in around 1905.

Editing a first draft. Even I am intimidated by this much bright ink. It is why I use pencil to comment on student papers.

Not a single woman will be present during the Doha talks between the UN and Taliban.
Without a doubt, the erasure of Afghan women and girls is the most pressing issue the country faces.
To ignore this, and appease the Taliban as they wish, undermines the entire UN system.

@whattpwrites @CraigBaird Lives of Girls and Women was life-changing. I thought, finally a book written for me..

@CraigBaird I cried when I read this! Her “Lives of Girls and Women” was the first book I ever read that was set in rural southern Ontario where I was growing up. I loved her writing so much.

It's the anniversary of my father's death today, so I'm resharing a little of his extraordinary story. I miss him so much.

Bloomsbury, 1933, and each week my father & his pals were going to meetings & marches to try to do something, anything, about the rising anti-semitism in Germany. Everyone was fully aware of what was happening. Fully aware. This was six years before the outbreak of war.

Anticipating the @uglibrary faculty writing retreat starting tomorrow. It’s always good to re-establish good writing habits. Working on abstracts & introduction to my current project. It is almost finished and I will be very excited to send it off before the deadline.

@CraigBaird Would love to see more of these and fewer historical dramatizations of every period. My fave Civilization with Sir Kenneth Clark

I've been watching The National Dream docuseries from 1974 while I worked the past few days.
Really enjoyed the docudrama style with snippets & narration from Pierre Berton.
You can tell that it heavily influenced the Heritage Minutes & Canada: A People's History.
