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.⭐⭐⭐

Rev250 event of the day — #OTD April 16, 1775, Paul Revere rode all the way to Concord to warn militia colonel James Barrett to move the military supplies he had collected for the Massachusetts Provincial Congress further away from a possible British army raid.

Rev250 event of the day — #OTD June 17, 1775, the New England provincial army fought the British military for control of the Charlestown peninsula. What became known as the Battle of Bunker Hill proved to be the bloodiest battle in North America during the whole war.

#OTD June 20, 1844, Thomas Dorr, insurrectionist, was convicted of treason against the State of Rhode Island, in RI Supreme Court. He is sentenced "for the term of his natural life, and there kept at hard labor in separate confinement." He was released 20 months later. #OnThisDay

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.
