Also massive thanks to @BlkPerspectives who are an essential resource both in this moment and for teaching black history. So much of my learning begins with their work.

With colleagues from @WarwickHistory we've put together a Black Lives Matter Reading List for students and staff interested in learning more about Black history on both sides of the Atlantic. You can check it out here: rl.talis.com/3/warwick/lists…

Want to talk about #AmericanStudies teaching? Join us on 1 July to chat about how BAAS can support HE teaching practice, whether you are new to teaching, an experienced educator (but maybe less so online), or anywhere in between! @OfficialBAAS @BAAS_pgs baas.ac.uk/project/baas-digi…

Anti-racist pedagogies need to be a key part of this conversation.

Both of these papers are discussing, in different ways, honesty and willed ignorance in teaching scenarios #TeachingAS
