History is always happening, of course.

But we happen to live in times when REALLY OBVIOUSLY HISTORIC EVENTS are happening on a weekly -- sometimes daily -- basis.

The indictment of a former President of the United States for federal crimes is one of those events.

A BIG one.

#OnThisDay 60 years ago Martin Luther King, Jr. was arrested in Birmingham, AL, during Project C, the campaign to desegregate Birmingham. It was in jail that MLK wrote his now-famous Letter from Birmingham Jail.

Between 1851 and 1910, Irish women immigrating to NYC often took jobs in domestic service, drawn by the housing, food & clothing which allowed them to send the bulk of their earnings back home to Ireland. #StPatricksDay #WomensHistoryMonth

On Friday's episode of my live webcast "History Matters," we talked about America's longstanding hatred of banks (and I read aloud a favorite bad 18th century poem about the Bank of the United States. Trust me. It's bad.)

I have a LOT to say in this front because I have NO patience for people sneering at public-minded historians.

With democracy on fire, these folks are turning off hoses. (Not the best metaphor, but you get my point.)

The AHA should be building bridges bet. historians. NOT building walls.

You don't need to look to Nazi Germany to understand that the people firing professors who don't teach the "right" ideas & threatening librarians do not believe in democracy.

Democracy is grounded on debate, compromise, & electoral contests for power. And it's being savaged, step by step.
