.@JimGrossmanAHA was quoted in @HuffPost about a Florida law requiring schools to teach the “evils of communism.” “If our goal is to help students learn about threats to freedom and democracy, why are we not also requiring that they learn about fascism?” huffpost.com/entry/ron-desa…
.@TIME offers A 1920s Lesson for Today’s History Textbook Wars. Turns out to be @AHAhistorians
.@tressiemcphd explains legislators should step back and read @LuminaFound polling data that show that college students --Republicans and Democrats-- are afraid "not of new ideas but of being shot on campus." nytimes.com/2024/03/28/opi…
Anyone who wants an introduction to what historians do and why should read @AHAhistorians president Thavolia Glymph's explanation of how and why we listen to our sources. historians.org/research-and-p…
Thank you to all of our presenters and participants for joining us on the final day of the Graduate Student Experience™! We appreciate you taking time to discuss graduate education & consider how to better serve this student population @Gillis_BJ @JimGrossmanAHA @AHAhistorians
OUT NOW: New episode of #SpeechMatters podcast featuring a discussion on how “divisive concepts” legislation creates challenges for the teaching and learning of history that compromise democratic values and institutions. Feat. @JimGrossmanAHA from @AHAhistorians
Politico: "'Now, if I don’t get elected, it’s gonna be a bloodbath. That’s going to be the least of it,' Trump said at a rally in Ohio.'It’s going to be a bloodbath for the country.’” Journalists:please ask historians whether any presidential candidate has said anything like this

The schoolhouse is not the problem. It's the statehouse. Why controversy over secondary history education is off-track. Overheated. time.com/6917632/histor…
Lots of controversy/misinformation relating what is taught in secondary school US history classes. Do we teach critical race theory? Are history teachers teaching outdated scholarship? AHA is first to do comprehensive research on this. Webinar tomorrow: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regist…
“It is absolutely imperative that Americans resist legislation that prohibits teachers from teaching the history of the United States in an accurate and useful way.” Watch @JimGrossmanAHA of @AHAhistorians and other historians on teaching #HonestHistory. youtube.com/watch?v=LdcoBQ…
Plagiarism accusations get the attention, but @JimGrossmanAHA prefers reporters focus on "implications of public figures...weaving narratives about the past" with myths and "an embarrassing lack of knowledge of our nation’s history." #AHAPerspectives historians.org/research-and-p…

Not to be a "backlash to the backlash" guy, but I'm so flummoxed by folks insisting Trump was talking about a bloodbath *for the auto industry* if Biden is reelected. He plainly says that car industry problems *will be the least of our worries* in the bloodbath to come!
