What if the reason why we're all burned out is because the productivity norms of our profession are based on white men whose wives who took care of everything from cooking to copyediting for them a century ago?

Does anyone have strong feelings on textbooks for American Women’s History?
I’m teaching 2nd half for the first time in the spring and would appreciate any advice on course materials! TIA, #twitterstorians #womenshistory

ALWAYS introduce yourself to the other people in the archive. Just accidentally met the archivist for another important archive to my research 🤩

Sincere support for Kamala **requires** you to do so with respect for her sorority culture.
The signs and symbols of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, inc. (the oldest sorority for Black women) are NOT yours to adopt as a sign of support.

White friends, especially white women who did not have an undergraduate sorority experience:
In the coming months you’ll likely see a great deal of content about VP Harris’ sorority affiliation and the support from its members. We 🩷 it. Some info & tips for us: 🧵
