Anna and I share the same publicist 😃 (the author herself) and I know how important but also how tough it is to keep momentum going.

This is such important history, and such an expert author and great writer-- please do keep sharing, and **recommending to your libraries**!

*new* from me:

As pitchers and catchers report to Spring Training, three front office staffers spoke to me about helping Latino baseball players and their families navigate an America ravaged by ICE raids.

They say guidance from MLB has been “minimal” so their teams are getting creative.
How do MLB workers protect Latin players from Trump's ICE raids? By themselves.
Front office staffers told eyeblack about keeping immigrant players safe while league guidance is minimal and "Manfred kisses Trump's ass."

If there’s one history that unites all of América, without exception, is monarchy, conquista, plunder, and Native, Black, and Brown death and dispossession.

That’s truly what makes us one.

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.

Hundreds of kids are still detained.

We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

It occurs to me this morning that moments in US history when courts have been swamped by habeas petitions have generally tended to be moments we remember later with shame.

I wrote a book about how Americans have remembered, forgotten, and fought over George Washington and slavery for the past 250 years. It comes out on April 7—but you can win an advance copy and read it before anyone else by entering this giveaway on Goodreads! Please share.
Book cover for "Thy Will Be Done," featuring artwork by Titus Kaphar. Shows portrait of Washington half covered by historic, yellowed document: Washington's advertisement for the return of Ona Judge, a woman he enslaved who fled from slavery.

"Bad Bunny was interested in a general overview of Puerto Rican history to go with the YouTube videos, so I wrote historical narratives that cover the conquest by the Spanish empire in 1508 until the present day."

Not at all surprised to learn that Bad Bunny has a historical adviser. His halftime show was a reminder that our history and culture are deeply intertwined with the rest of the western hemisphere. We should think of his performance as part of #America250. #SuperBowl

Pop star Bad Bunny needed a Puerto Rican history scholar. UW–Madison had just the one.
Bad Bunny collaborated with UW–Madison history professor Jorell Meléndez-Badillo on Puerto Rican narratives that accompany the new album “DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS.”
