Road trip to @ENIUGH91 where I'll be speaking about Cuban feminist terrorists in the 1930s. Looking forward to meeting some interesting people and to a couple of days in the archives of @IISG_Amsterdam afterwards.
Man, this @NaomiAKlein evisceration of AI optimism is must-read stuff: "utopian hallucinations about AI...are the powerful and enticing cover stories for what may turn out to be the largest and most consequential theft in human history." Yes. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…@guardian

El 31 de julio de 1916 estalló la única huelga general en la historia de México. La organizó la Federación de Sindicatos del Distrito Federal contra la inflación que se vivía en la capital; exigían que los salarios se pagarán en patrón oro y no en dinero constitucionalista.
Got an email from someone asking for a pdf of an article I wrote, which made me quite happy. But the point of this tweet is to remind folks that scholars are generally pleased to share their work & if you can’t access it, ask them. Knowledge shouldn’t be paywalled.
Pre-recording was a great idea, since ETECSA apparently hasn't completely fixed the data center problem and we were short one panelist. Thank you @dpedreira for handling the panel very professionally! #LASA2022
Since I'm still in Havana and we've been having internet problems and power outages during the last weeks, this is my backup presentation for the "New Directions in Cuban History" panel on friday. I'll be happy to take any questions here. #LASA2022youtu.be/IuLCcSrXa3o
