Just explained Juneteenth to my five year olds. The response: “this must be the most important holiday in the world.” No argument here.
Now that we reached our goal of 2k contribution lets aim for 2.5k @KinBeyond researchers! https:///enslaved-populations-research-directory
@mishjholman My experience is that many academics are unaware of the meticulous research undertaken by descendants of #EnslavedPeople My work as a public historian takes me into both worlds and I am in awe of the work of descendants.

HBCUs were created during the least discussed time in history. The Reconstruction Era was a time when black people showed who they were. Released from slavery, AA played a part in the reboot of history through education. @genealogadvent & HBCU grads will discuss the role of HBCUs

We've missed you! For the next 3 months, Genealogy Adventures Live will explore rarely discussed stories. From learning about Jamaican & Slavic genealogy to learning about the congressmen who owned slaves, this may be the most educational three months we'll have #genealogy
Still milking this MA two years later!! Finally celebrating with @HistoryUL and my dear friend and class mate @MABPublicHist, and the always supportive @MsFrugalone. Wouldn’t have got here without these women, and of course @LornaLElms and @HistorianKarol 👩🎓🥂
"Everyone has a story. Every story matters." ~ Nicole Wedemeyer Miller
Colonial newspapers contributed to the perpetuation of slavery. Advertised 250 years ago today: “TO BE SOLD, A Middle aged NEGRO" WOMAN "who is an excellent Cook... her Daughter, a Mulatto about six Years old, may be sold with her.” (South-Carolina Gazette 4/23/1772)
Frederick Douglass was so gangster. He didn’t mince words when arguing against the false ideology of the “Lost Cause,” calling intentional history revisionist “ apostles of forgetfulness.” He insisted that we must forgive but never forget the very real atrocities of slavery.
I was taken to Baltimore jail in April 1822, despite being a free man of color, and held there until July before being released. I became sick with smallpox in January 1824, and died in the Baltimore hospital in March 1824. Remember me. My name was ALEXANDER WARNER.
@saytheirnamesIr @JMMdescendants At this point, I don't know how those two men still have a job. Big doners have cut ties with Montpelier as a result of this. Folks are starting to say that they won't visit the site until the descendants' group has full parity and autonomy.
Good morning. You all are amazing. Keep being amazing: read this @NPR story by @alanawise_ about #freemontpelier and our colleagues who have been fired, suspended, and our community partners, @JMMdescendants, who have been cut out. Share it widely. npr.org/2022/04/20/109…
Colonial newspapers contributed to the perpetuation of slavery. Advertised 250 years ago today: “TO BE SOLD… twenty-seven valuable SLAVES, mostly country born... jobbing carpenters, coopers, prime sawyers, house” women. (South-Carolina Gazette and Country Journal 4/21/1772)
It's #TaxDay! Are you using tax lists in your genealogical research? Here's a PA tax list on @Ancestry generated from the first direct tax levied by the US gov't in 1798. It shows the dimensions of one's house, including how many stories & windows it had! #genealogy

Surprised myself this week by successfully tracing who lived in my house. A local history page gave names of some residents in a nearby street in 1910. I searched for them in the 1911 census, found a correct one & worked through the record to find my street. #AncestryHour #1/7
Here's a mystery for the #AncestryHour crew. A distant cousin sailed to England with husband & two children. Three months later hubs returns with the kids & a new wife. No trace of my cousin in England or Canada. No family left on that branch to provide clues. Ideas appreciated!
Yesterday I was trying to work out if there was a better way to describe a 'brother-in-law once removed'. In the middle of the night I realised it was 'nephew' 😶
My head hurts every time I try to read it slowly! 😯 #AncestryHour
This is what wokewashing looks like. Organizations, both big and small, will issue "commitment to D&I" statements but antagonize the only trans and/or BIPOC staff members they have. The #queerhist and #publichistory fields are especially guilty of this. (8/8)
I had previously pointed out the director's unconscious bias regarding my name. I was ignored. In my resignation email, I explained how uncomfortable the situation had become. I was sent a form letter simply acknowledging my departure. (7/8)
Right after saying this to me, the director sent out the next staff meeting's agenda. The first item: "We will continue our DEI reflections with everyone offering an observation on the precept 'every history professional must do personal work to face unconscious bias.'" (6/8)
"Your first name has no vowels. That's all our board and constituents will remember. Does that further your work as a public historian? It's about how to present yourself. Be relatable. Be someone people want to approach, someone people want to work with." (5/8)
During the hiring process, my extensive experience was praised - "You are such a gift to us and we look forward to working with you." Shortly thereafter, I was condescended to and made to feel like an inconvenience - (4/8)
I was told on multiple occasions that my name was a deterrent to empathy. For whom? I've been going by my initials for over a decade, as both a community organizer and scholar. (3/8)
My position was created to "diversify" the collections of a very small queer history organization and facilitate all outreach to trans communities of color. Yet I was made to feel unwelcome. (2/8)
So when you ask us why we just can’t get over it:
Just resigned from my new #queerhist #publichistory job after three weeks. I was repeatedly pressured to use my anglo name. If I insisted on going by my initials, I had to write a blurb for the monthly newsletter "explaining my decision." (1/8)
Just explained Juneteenth to my five year olds. The response: “this must be the most important holiday in the world.” No argument here.

@chapja @AllysGenealogy Tks Jane. Ally, if you check out our Directory on the website, you can add whatever you have now with a note that you hope to have more info later. Thank you.
Annnnnd I believe I found an ancestor who had enslaved people in the early colonial days. I'll add finding out more information about them to my list of things to research. #Genealogy #familyhistory
Now that we reached our goal of 2k contribution lets aim for 2.5k @KinBeyond researchers! https:///enslaved-populations-research-directory
@mishjholman My experience is that many academics are unaware of the meticulous research undertaken by descendants of #EnslavedPeople My work as a public historian takes me into both worlds and I am in awe of the work of descendants.
