- Hey, #histmed, #histgender, #histwomen, #histsex folks, as OAH has extended deadline to April 29, anybody want to join me for a session on "Sex/Ed: Sex Education and Sexual Diversity in US History"? Thinking of a traditional paper session although I'm open to another format.
- I'm possibly on some watch lists now but I honestly believe this is an issue that we need to speak out on, especially in the context of an election with one party endorsing these sorts of views. Academic freedom without diverse views is not free. Thanks to The Guardian #auspol #histmed #disability
