Anna Komnene: Dead Byzantine Lady Historian

Inaccurate: he is the first North American born pope. There are 35 sovereign American nations :)

First North American pope :)
There are 35 sovereign American nations

First North American pope. Francis was also American. There are 35 sovereign American nations :)

Friendly geographic reminder… Francis was also American.

This is the first North American pope but we best not forget the other 34 sovereign American countries that exist.

Just for fun: take one movie and change something major about it. IE: An animated Tim Burton movie designed for kids is suddenly live action… and now probably a real horror movie… or you change the profession of the lead character…. Or you switch an actor…. Or you swap someone’s accent…. Thoughts?

Did you know that America kind of had a female president already? During WWI, Edith Wilson covered up her husband’s stroke and ran the United States. The vice president did not take over.

I am wondering when the last time was that members of government have looked at the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It might be a really helpful way to ground ourselves globally. Just saying

How devastating for so many people who only sought to educate themselves so they could better educate our children

This reminds me of Mussolini’s slogan “Mussolini is always right”

The challenge I was told with switching was you wouldn’t actually know what $ number SAVE/PSLF would expect you to pay for it to count in the end

Some of us are just caught in limbo if we were on SAVE. I was advised on the phone by my service not to pay because it likely won’t count towards PSLF and may completely mess up future payments by permanently impacting my status as a public service employee. I didn’t even know what to do with that

Be fierce today!

On this day in history (1922), Gandhi was sentenced to 6 years in prison for protesting a corrupt government. When we look back now, do we agree Gandhi was in the wrong? Or do we need to critically analyze our determination of what constitutes criminality? #historymatters

They called Joan of Arc a heretic, Harriet Tubman a fugitive, and Marie Curie 'just a wife.' History proves time and time again—unstoppable women rewrite the story. #WomenWhoChangeTheWorld

From Cleopatra to Nzinga, from the Trung Sisters to Sojourner Truth - history whispers a secret: underestimating women has never ended well.

Adah Isaacs Menken, a Jewish, biracial woman rode across the stage (seemingly) completely naked during the US Civil War. Audiences were fascinated. She had multiple marriages (some simultaneously) and a very public affair with Alexandre Dumas (Three Muskateers) - learn more in my book - link below

Fascinating!

Thank you! I’m honored!

Today on #IWD it is a wonderful time to write to male presidential hopefuls asking them to come out in support of the 2028 Gentleman’s Agreement, a bipartisan call to ask men to forego running for one cycle in order to usher in America’s first female president!
