On my way to #SHEAR2023 to discuss Ron DeSantis’ 2011 book “Dreams From Our Founding Fathers,” the uses and abuses of history, and what we can learn about the Right’s recent trajectory by analyzing DeSantis’ path over the past decade. Should be… fun?

Looking forward to taking part in the roundtable "Slavery, Dispossession, and the State: New Directions in Financial History" at #SHEAR2023 on Saturday. I'll be complementing the US-centered thoughts of Connolly, Daly, and Ramage (K-Sue Park has unfortunately had to withdraw) by offering up an outsider's take, reflecting on the history of money, public finance, and colonialism in what is now Canada. Should be a great conversation! #histodons @histodons
