There will be a book launch and discussion for London 1984 @OUPHistory on 16 May at 6 pm with @MillaSchofield @hilarypepper and Mathew Hilton. Many thanks to @colm_m and MEI for organizing this: eventbrite.co.uk/e/london-1984-…
I'm inordinately proud of this book, which took a lot of hard work. It's properly interdisciplinary, properly empirical, properly theoretical, and properly historical. Great chapters from the project team and so many insights throughout. (Plus the endorsements are so lovely!)

Come and be me! (Except better, brighter and younger.) 12-month teaching/research fellowship in 20thC European history @HCAatEdinburgh. Deadline: 25 July. Link and details: elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candidat… (NB. Must have right to work in UK, sadly no visa sponsorship possible.)
In the first issue of @TCBHJournal under its new name, Modern British History, we plan to publish brief pieces (approx 1000 words) reflecting on the contributions that particular articles in TCBH have made to the development of scholarship on modern British history. (1/3)
A must read!
Yesssss! This is gonna be big.
This year's Raphael Samuel Memorial Lecture with Professor David Herd @RefugeeTales couldn't be more relevant, as MPs currently debate a grotesque new Illegal Immigration Bill. Sign up and learn more about refugee experiences and how to resist the Expulsive Environment.

This special issue began as a conversation to mark the 30th anniversary of There Aint No Black in the Union Jack. Over 5 years, thru pandemic and crisis, it became a deep collaboration of thinking and writing that we'll never forget. Thanks to @bungatuffie for the inspiration.

The iconic Empire Windrush passenger list is now on display at @UkNatArchives! But what is the passenger list? What can we learn from it? And why does The National Archives hold it? You can find out more about this important record in my blog: blog.nationalarchives.gov.uk/the-empire-win…

This Kendrick diss got me out here wanting to start academic beef. Who wants to write some commentaries back and forth?
One bit that’s been under-appreciated abt all of this is how racialized it all is. This makes clear how race and racial attitudes matter. It’s also likely why some feel so ready to quell these protests using police power. It is, after all, what we do to certain kinds of folks.
A white Ole Miss frat boy dances like a monkey and makes monkey noises near a Black woman who was protesting for Palestine. Is this heart warming? (Video: @StaceyJSpiehler)
All trans people deserve the chance to live joyful lives. Regardless of their age. Regardless of the path they walk through life. Not just to survive - but to thrive. Don't let the bastards grind you down. Hate always eats itself in the end.
@novaramedia @AaronBastani Man who’s been married four times presumes to pontificate on family life. Beyond parody.
I had just started to accept that perhaps it was now properly spring, a pleasant time of year to be outside and in the fresh air, and today the weather does THIS????
Tom Hunt is right: people shouldn't mock him for issues caused by dyspraxia, which affects c.6% of adults. But by his own account, Voter ID has made it harder for those people to vote. If we want neurodiverse voices to be heard in politics, that's the issue that needs addressing
I’ve been working on a documentary about The La’s for 2 years. I’m absolutely obsessed and have been collecting all kinds of archive material. Please get in contact if you have anything that could contribute (stories, recordings, your own photos, articles - whatever). #TheLas
It's great that M&S at the train station sells tinnies of G&T so that I can pour one on myself as the train pulls out of the station.
Really delighted to see this out: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/09… If you've ever wondered what Eric Hobsbawm's 'Primitive Rebels', Peter Laslett's demographic history, Keith Thomas' Religion and the Decline of Magic, and E P Thompson's 'moral economy' owe to anthropology...
Huge thanks to the journal and judges and to @hhnnccnnll for asking me the questions. Now for the revisions!
Really pleased to be sharing a book launch with @nobbyclarke31. What can @MassObsArchive tell us about living through These Times? @ManchesterUP

But then you also have to add on this existential fight for your programmes, your colleagues, your department and your job. You’re often doing this with partial information and with a huge sense of the stakes at play… /2
I don’t think there’s a way to come through it without feeling mentally and emotionally exhausted. And meanwhile the world is rolling on… lots of the people you are in touch with or working with (colleagues in other unis, students) have no idea the demands on you & your time /3
If (or when) you aren’t able to perform as you know you can during redundancy process it hurts. The work is important. This is now my second time at risk of redundancy in two years. So much time lost on this. I’ll find out in coming weeks if I have to apply for my job again. /4
