Hi folks! My time as an MA public history student is coming to a close, and I am looking for full-time work. I am eager to contribute my enthusiasm and skills in research, writing, programs, collections, and social media. I would truly appreciate any connections or leads!

It's not easy getting a photo of members of our Facilities Management staff. They're constantly moving, working hard to keep the National Mall looking amazing. The ultimate behind-the-scenes heroes, we're so thankful for all they do.⭐⭐⭐

With the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's Ride coming this evening - and the start of the Revolutionary War - it's helpful to remember that the geographic layout of Boston was VERY different than today.

As lead organizer of the Fall conference for the New England Historical Association, here is the call for papers. Conference is open to all historians (not just in or about NE) and will be held at Nichols College, my professional home. Hope you will consider taking part.

ICE and LAPD assaulted more Americans in Los Angeles this week than all the undocumented immigrants in the city combined. But because they’re police, none of that will show up in the crime stats and no officers will go to jail.

Donald Trump’s deployment of the military in Los Angeles over the objection of California leaders is an abuse of power and a dangerous escalation. It’s what you would see in authoritarian states and it must stop. Americans have the right to speak out and peacefully protest.

I saw a couple (after tonight they may not be a pair) in matching dinosaur onesies (it is not cold out) arguing passionately on a bike path. I had many questions and asked none.
