I love what I do! To embolden more #learning, I created this MUCH needed #history, found nowhere nor easily defined by any/most: HANDS ON THE PAST My VERY LONG time thing! - Created for #archivalengagement needed for future #students & any/new #colleagues! #twitterstorians

Best thing any person #teaching could do #preclass is not really homework but offering #selfreflection in an #assessment. I have top-notch excited future #doctors, #lawyers, #elephantsavers, #scientists, #healers of many kinds including for #alopecia, etc. Wowzer #twitterstorians

Many think I'm random but and my #Blackfilm class this fall 2024 is watching #LouisGossetJr on purpose. Even more in this 1970s moment, when he shined another way, why not? #twitterstorians #filmtwitter #bhm #BlackTwitter #gowatch youtu.be/fpmdeHmguWw?si…

1 of 2 #classes I'm teaching WashU this #fall2024. After 16 years working on the #Faculty, this #medhum #medicalhistory #history #Afas #class WILL always matter! #MHE #MHElegacy

2 of 2 classes I'm teaching WashU, including the oldest running #Blackfilm #class! #movies #Blackmovies #FilmTwitter #filmclass #twitterstorians #VisualizingBlackness

Favorite #question, and yet thanks to #politicians thinking they own my wheelhouse, this is THE common #Americancollegestudent response in 2024! #twitterstorians #history

The No 1 #question I heard in #college ... Elon University in the 90s! And how I #teach with those words & a #book from then to empower #millenials beyond #silences & more! #twitterstorians #history #books #mustread

#LateNight #Notes: 1. #Keepwriting 2. #Life is about to #flip-#flop 3. #Whocares what your #enemies think!? 4. #Write yourself out of the #lowpoints! 5. Be sure to look ahead, at least 10 years ahead & get ready! The full circle will indeed be different from now: #fiends et al!

No matter on or off #sabbatical, this fluff matters to the #House! #cats #dogs #twitterstorians

About to get my #podcast on. Love the #local invites to talk #history, my #book & more! #twitterstorians

#Dinnertime? Might want to get on Tubi's #AssassinsCreed! What an awesome #action, what if, - very well acted - #movie! Why are people #violent? Some #memories fade while others are just being #triggered!

Ecstatic, colleague/friend, as ASALH would agree,... to assign a The Journal of African American History article in the 2020s, even what some would consider old/new scholarship, called future progress happening!! #twitterstorians #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter

8 years later, #assignments that include #SlaveryatSea & just let #students #read an #AI (maybe even) wrong #interpretation(s) of the #book on #YouTube, yea well, it will not get any of us far, at all! #Academia #twitterstorians #gradschool #AcademicTwitter #history #herstory

#Teaching is fun, keeps you on your toes with engaging the next set of students. The part I love even more is meeting students at the #archives to show them how the past is preserved as they assist me pulling historic files for their #classmates! #HandsonthePast #twitterstorians

Just over there questioning others value.. not caring what folks doing that you wouldn't Care & dig for those #students! Yup, what i do for my students most, pull close to 40 coroner's inquest for my students to go deeper than the average #history #student(s)! #twitterstorians

How #Missouri does, from 1870 to 2024 #election. leading the pack, just #criminalizing #women and #girls, deserves a look!!!! From 1870 to JD Vance (Ohio State. Ohio State Alumni) & Donald J. Trump, alll #wombs are prey to men and #women at least! Ummmmphhhhh!!!!! #twitterstorians

Truth! #Missouri on abortion, 1870.
