In latest CSSAAME issue, I wrote about Dr. Akiki Nyabongo’s global life, expansive career, and way of revealing the limiting categories into which global narratives slot African intellectuals. Grateful to everyone who helped with this! 3-mo free access: tinyurl.com/4pdycpc2

Start your week with Alvita Akiboh's (@yale_history) article: "Empire's Embezzlers: Fraud and Scandal in U.S.-Occupied Cuba, 1900–1902." doi.org/10.1017/mah.2023.49
And congratulations on her book! It considers the role that flags, stamps, and currency played in US imperialism.

1/ I'd like to highlight some recent digital projects and scholarship that engage with the concept of #ArchivalSilences and purposefully center it in their thinking.
Follow along:
If anyone wants a class activity that explores global history, pan-Africanism, 20th century African education, Ugandan history, diaspora, or intellectual history – teach about Nyabongo! There are fun stories & good sources and I would love to share them. #twitterstorians

Stanford brags about Dr. King speaking on campus every MLK Day while it leaves the King Institute (@mlk_institute) with an endowment that’s less than 1% of the Hoover Institution’s endowment 🙃 Do right by funding the Institute, departmentalizing AAAS, & supporting Black students

Wow it’s almost like police forces in the US exist primarily to enforce the race/class divide & not actually to protect public safety

When discussing Florida everyone should remember GOP legislature passed modern-day poll tax preventing 775,000 people with past felony convictions from voting, who were disproportionately Black & lean Dem, that was upheld by 5 Trump judges

We implore the National Park Service who leads this search in collaboration with the FBI and military to continue a rigorous search for an alive Sam Dubal, just for a few more days, even 72 hours, for three compelling reasons. #FindSamDubal #MissingPerson
