The Codex Mendoza, composed in 1541, was an attempt to memorialize Aztec culture, capturing knowledge of a world that was swiftly disappearing. Let’s flip through its pages together.

@strandbeutel @Bundesregierung @Mareike2405 @histodons @claasgefroi Die feiert sich ja gerne und rühmt sich ihrer langen Geschichte. Jetzt also auch für die Sozialgesetzgebung. lässt dabei das Sozialistengesetz (1878-1890) geflissentlich aus, das die SPD in ihrer Vorgängerorganisation faktisch lahmgelegt hatte und sie deshalb gar nicht aktiv daran beteiligt war. Upsi.

@sebastianschroeder @histodons Wäre sicher gut das demnächst nur noch an Themenabenden mit historischer Einordnung zu senden. Dramaturgisch etc. waren die Nazi-Filme oft erschreckend gut. Und interessant auch, was im Kino dann doch so alles "durchging". Zara Leander's und Johannes Heesters' Leinwandcharaktere waren nicht gerade "brave Deutsche", sondern eigentlich zu hedonistisch und sexy. Manchmal brauchte vielleicht sogar das NS Regime eine Ablenkung von den eigenen Idealen?

@sebastianschroeder @histodons PS: Davon, die Filme gar nicht mehr zu zeigen, halte ich nicht viel. Ich fand es als Schülerin/Studentin schwierig, dass viel über "Nazi Propaganda" gesprochen wurde, dass man sich aber kein Bild machen konnte. Erst später konnte ich "Die Goldene Stadt" etc. sehen & besser verstehen, was den NS Film ausmachte. Ich war auch für die kritische Edition von "Mein Kampf" dankbar. Neonazis kommen an verbotenes Material auf eigenen Wegen: Internet & Flohmarkt im Ausland.

Today is apparently National "Pretend to Be a Time Traveler Day" in Canada. I'm traveling back 400 years to watch Anne Hutchinson wipe the floor with Puritan Governor John Winthrop during her sedition trial.

OTOH, it is entirely possible that we are seeing from 's now in .

Also, some cave-people tribal mentality among could be attributed to that.

The AHA’s letter expressing strong objection to Ohio Senate Bill 83 is on the agenda at today’s meeting of the Ohio House Higher Education Committee. Our testimony expresses grave doubts about the utility of the bill’s heavy-handed interventions in both history education and university administration.

@bojacobs @histodons This made me remember the official at some public event to take input on mining, ate some yellowcake to show it was not dangerous. And I'm sure somebody has a link to a story about him, too.

TIL: Anlässlich des Besuch König Wilhelms I. in wurde im Herbst 1868 auf der Möweninsel in der Schlei eine hölzerne Burg errichtet.

Auf der Möweninsel stand einst die Juriansborg (oder Jürgensburg), die erste Residenz der Herzöge zu Schleswig und quasi-Vorgänger |s. Heute liegt sie unter eine Schicht von etwa 50cm Möwenkot begraben.

Norddeutscher wird's nicht mehr.

☀️ Close to Spain’s vital silver mines, Carthago Nova prospered throughout the mid to late Republic: the historian Polybius describing it as a magnificent capital resplendent in palaces, temples, and, of course, its all important harbour.

📜 The post about Carthago Nova was written for Timetravelrome by our long time friend & author Michel Gybels. It is dedicated to Molinete - the main archaeological area of the ancient city. 📸 Link 👉

"a conversation to help teachers, at the K–12 & college levels, develop strategies to teach the conflict & many of the attendant sensitive historical topics it entails. It might seem that this history is a minefield worth avoiding, but thoughtful & engaged teachers have been teaching such difficult topics in a civil & empathetic way for decades"

Ussama Makdisi & @UssamaMakdisi The @nytimes ran a piece about @SenSchumer's very personal speech in which the Senator appears to be both profoundly aware of aspects of U.S and European history, especially as they relate to the pernicious history of Western antisemitism, and yet also profoundly in denial about the history of colonial Zionism in Palestine from the Balfour Declaration of 1917 onwards that culminated in the Nakba of 1948. Yet again the actuality of Palestinian history and lived experience of decades under occupation and apartheid are made to be fundamentally irrelevant to making sense of current events. Leaving aside the Senator's own perspective and feelings to which he is perfectly entitled, what is disturbing is how @nytimes just casually puts this in its report "Mr. Schumer’s warning came as antisemitic hate crimes have skyrocketed and pro-Palestinian protests, some featuring antisemitic signs and slogans, have swelled across the country as the civilian death toll in Gaza has soared." So note how the association works: just keep linking pro-Palestinian solidarity work with antisemitism...casually, repeatedly, and then fixate on the "crisis" on campuses across the country but not the one being experienced by students of all faiths who are being doxxed, abused, and vilified because they dare stand for justice, equality, and freedom in Palestine. 2:27 PM - Nov 30, 2023 - 17.6K Views

Shockingly narrow perspective!
