Rebecca BrückmannAlright, this seems to be a mandatory #Histodon / #Histodons ritual: I'm a historian of African American experiences, the U.S. South, and of white supremacy and gender. My first book was on white (supremacist) women, class, and Massive Resistance (UGA Press, 2021). Currently, I am working on 19th and 20th century transnational histories of Black concert dance (and could not be more excited about it :)). Thanks for reading, and I look forward to connecting on here.
