‘Whatever it is that you’re teaching, think of the women.’ #BeBoldHistory Let’s do it, #HistoryTeachers - there’s no excuse not to! Also see End Sexism In Schools if you want to be part of campaign to get proper representation of women across the whole curriculum
Outside Europe, most medieval monarchies are not “monogamous” they’re polyamorous. Power is shared. And often, it’s royal mothers who hold or share power! Some Kings co-ruled with enthroned mothers (not their wives) in Africa for example. Dr Elena 'Ellie' Woodacre #BeBoldHistory
