Congratulations, Ryan!
The winner of the Lisa MacFarlane Prize for the best undergraduate project in American Studies goes to Ryan Doane-Ngyuen of @HistLit for their paper "Empire for Breakfast: Tracing the Subtle Violence in Representation of Filipinos by the U.S. Wartime Press."
Congratulations, Henry!
We awarded honorable mention of the MacFarlane Prize to Henry Lear, of @HistLit, for "The High-Rise and the Victorian: Producing Yuppie Visual Language in San Francisco." Lear's work is evocative and timely as we consider the ever worsening housing crises in many U.S. cities.
