I am sincerely honored that the Mexico Section of the Latin American Studies Association has chosen 'The Capital of Free Women' as the Best Book in the Humanities for 2024. LASA was the 1st conference I attended as a graduate student. I met wonderful mentors there. Thank you all.

Would you believe me if I told you that 3 books from our department went on sale today?! That's one hell of a coinkidinky. I swear we didn't plan it. Nicholas R. Jones here: psupress.org/books/titles/9…; Santiago's: amazon.com/dp/8498955696?… and mine: dukeupress.edu/and-the-dogs-w…

No fooling: SB 83, despite its widespread, massive opposition, remains a pending bill! Write to your State Rep and tell them NO on SB 83!

The Senate is set to vote on a bill with language that would block Veterans Affairs from reporting records to the FBI about individuals prohibited from having guns—upending a decades-long practice that helps protect at-risk veterans from self-harm.

Indiana’s SB 202 is a dangerous, disingenuous culture war inspired bill that gives a green light to pit students against teachers & undermine academic freedom & high quality higher education in Indiana. Governor Eric Holcomb, preserve your exceptional higher education system, #VetoSB202 .

The SB 83 brain drain applies to students as much as faculty. Students have been invoked as a reason to pass this bill, but the student voice has been loud and clear that they don't want any part of it. #StopSB83

What might art history look like when the frameworks through which the early modern Atlantic world has been approached up to now are, if not jettisoned altogether, scrambled, refracted, and pushed into the background? onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/14678365/2…

Besides the issue of low pay, this cuts to the heart of pressures on academic freedom/speech rn. How much job security do NTT faculty who try to teach honest history & facts have? They do a majority of college teaching & need that support.
