Oh so we all got blocked? This is repugnant on so many levels Howard University. You can ignore it all you'd like, but the fact of the matter is that you have an egregiously anti-Black historian in @analuciaraujo_ handling our history & exerting control over our narratives. Real allies...

#WhiteAcademicWomenandTheirRacism a thread because I wake up to white-skinned latina @analuciaraujo_ claiming the right to determine who is Black and who isn't in her defense of @SarahEBond. This not a subtweet. I'm sick of you people.

#BlackHistoryMonth

@analuciaraujo_ My memoir in essays SOUL CULTURE: BLACK POETS, BOOKS AND QUESTIONS THAT GREW ME UP is out from Beacon Press on 8.16.22. Just turned in my last round of copyedits. Still amazed that the whole process happened during a pandemic and it’s finally coming to light in a few months.

Axel Folio, PhD, 🍉 Bret Hart's resumé editor 🪁 @analuciaraujo_ I'm guessing whoever runs that account isn't happy. This is all Twitter lets me see for most of the replies. Although your mini-thread (including the exchange with Dr. Wilson) is quite visible.

The Brazil LAB and Princeton Program in Latin American Studies will host the 2022 Stanley Stein Lecture on March 31, 4:30pm ET / 17h30 BR, featuring historian @analuciaraujo_ (Howard/IAS). Discussant: Lilia Schwarcz (USP/Princeton).

I’ll be responding to these two scholars, @analuciaraujo_ and Susan Neiman this afternoon online in an event on racial reckoning and reparations moderated by Mikhal Dekel. Come through and watch me ask for their help in unpacking episode 4 of the 3rd season of AtlantaFX!

How should we remember? What is the meaning of history and community? Those are the questions that 'The Work of Memory', a virtual panel discussion, will address on March 24, Noon–1:15 pm. Details & registration at bit.ly/3ibLSCa GU Slavery Archive @analuciaraujo_ Catholic U History Dept.

The Brazil LAB and the Princeton Program in Latin American Studies will host the 2022 Stanley Stein Lecture Tomorrow 4:30pm ET/17h30 BR With ANA LUCIA and Jeremy Adelman (@PrincetonPIIRS) The event honors the life and work of Professor Stanley J. Stein (1920-2019). Watch here:

Surprising news today. Excited and honored to join the Royal Historical Society. And @analuciaraujo_ will be my fellow, so it could not be better!

@FGMohamed @analuciaraujo_ Look, we all know how you read & write. Have you updated your inaccurate piece yet or are you still claiming that Ayanna Thompson, Kim Hall, Margo Hendricks, Jonathan Hsy and others are 'junior scholars'? 😂🤣 Go circle the wagon of white supremacy. 👋🏾

Happy Friday! All month, we are celebrating #WAKH historians who recently published books. Join us in congratulating Dr. Ana Lucia Araujo (@analuciaraujo_) for her work, 'Slavery in the Age of Memory' Bloomsbury U.S.! Purchase your copy here:

Late to the conflict, but since I've praised @analuciaraujo_ 's work here a few months ago, I'd like to say: the shocking racist attack against Axel Folio, PhD, 🍉 Bret Hart's resumé editor 🪁 is unacceptable in every way, and I will no longer amplify ALA's research. All my best wishes to Dr. MRO.
