Thank you @sixteenthCgirl for inviting me to be on @NotJustTudors! I really enjoyed our conversation and the chance to share these stories.
In 16th Century Spain, the monarchy saw the value of controlling 'Morisco' children, from Muslim families that were forcibly converted to Catholicism. Professor Suzannah Lipscomb finds out more from Dr. Stephanie Cavanaugh: podfollow.com/not-just-the-t… @sixteenthCgirl @SMCavanaugh
I had a great time at my first meeting of the Atlantic Medieval and Early Modern Group last weekend in Halifax!
Thanks to all participants for making AMEMG 24 a success, from its stellar keynote with @AnnaMSmol to its marathon day of panels, featuring twenty papers from scholars of all career levels. Wonderful to meet you all and looking forward to next time @MSVU_English @msvuenglsociety

TFW when your faculty union sends you an email calling your university president’s statement on anti-genocide protests “misleading and highly prejudicial in its implications” and tells you a grievance has already been filed. I swooned.

Silence & neutrality = complicity 🍉
Replying to @nkalamb
"We reject the negative framing of those standing in solidarity w/ Palestinians. We reject the appeal to 'political neutrality' + 'institutional autonomy,' because these are not an appropriate response to colonial violence done with our institution’s moral and material support."

The IDF opened fire on people they've been starving for months when those people went to collect food aid. If this doesn't not move you to speak against this violence, then you are actively collaborating with genocide.

"If you believe that too many people are being killed, maybe you should provide less arms."
European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell has suggested the United States rethink its military aid to Israel - because of the high number of civilian casualties in the war in Gaza.

How many more children will suffer and die before this nightmare ends?
Dr. Stephanie Cavanaugh retweeted
Rafah is one of the most densely populated places on earth, teeming with children and families, some already displaced many times by war in Gaza.
Of the 1.3 million people seeking shelter, 600,000 are children.
They have nowhere safe to go.
They must be protected.
Dr. Stephanie Cavanaugh retweeted
This right here is why I still use Twitter.
Interesting detail re. operating a printing press - in Sandrart’s 1683 Academia @Bibtntcsic. I suspect the image reflects what must have been a common workshop arrangement / practice. Any further leads (e.g. other period images)? #printing #press
