One of the most profound thoughts about #revolutions and #coups I've read was in a Finnish historical epic, Under the North Star. When Finnish fascists attempt a coup in 1932, an old "red" character notes that in coups, the important thing is not how many are for it - it's how many stand against.

The #RESONANCE project will launch its #ReadingGroup on 15 December.

It will be an in-person meeting at FCSH (Lisbon), focusing on the book ‘There is no Unhappy Revolution’ by Marcello Tarì.

This is a bring-your-own-lunch event and, when in-person, the coffee and cookies are provided by the project.

I wish more people knew about this #historical #monument in #Texas, the Treue der Union Monument. After the #revolutions of 1848, many liberal & abolitionist #Germans settled in #Texas in Meusebach-Comanche Treaty lands, the only unbroken peace accord between Europeans & Native Americans in history. After the secession of Texas & its entry into the Civil War, many men & boys of this group were hunted down for evading conscription & killed at the Nueces Massacre. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treue_der_Union_Monument

📖 In a paper published in the Annals of the Fondazione Luigi Einaudi, José Miguel Ferreira writes about Bernardo Peres da Silva (1775–1844), the first and only Indian to be appointed governor of the Portuguese Empire in Asia and a notable figure in the global ‘Age of Revolutions’.

US Politics Is Just Nonstop Fake Revolutions Now

Listen to a reading of this article (reading by Tim Foley):

It was one of the most important #revolutions in modern history — and yet no blood was spilled, no bombs were thrown and no monarch was beheaded.

Perhaps no great social transformation has ever been carried out so quietly. This one took place in armchairs, in #libraries, in coffee houses and in clubs.

What happened was this: in the middle of the eighteenth century huge numbers of ordinary people began to #read.

When driving around, my adult son and I are listening to the #Revolutions podcast by Mike Duncan.

Today, we moved into the third season that covers the French Revolution. Part way through the first episode, he stopped the podcast and said:

‘I know a bit about this one - the peasants were revolting and after a while, this bloke with a huge Napoleonic complex took over.’

Sometimes I think he is a huge loss to the comedy world.
