Before 9/11 marked tragedy in the U.S., it marked tragedy in Chile in 1973 when dictator Pinochet began a reign of terror.
Justice for the hundreds of thousands of Chileans persecuted, tortured, and killed. 50 years later, we must learn this history to prevent it from repeating. New from Ariel Dorfman: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/10/opinion/chile-allende-september-11.html

If you work in tech and haven't heard about "being glue", I would say that it's vital to read about it:

You'll either feel extremely heard, or it will open your eyes to what some of your (disproportionately female) coworkers struggle with on a regular basis.
Our R-Ladies directory is growing!
We just added some new functionality for filtering the entires, and hope this helps you find speakers for your events!
If your entry does not get filtered correctly, you should consider updating it. The filtering works best with new or newly updated entries!
If you're a DHy person looking for a Bluesky invite code, @quinnanya & @walshbr run this effort to match up DHers and extra invite codes: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScLFxq9h9NzPq5KVYYKFqL5gH7rjK0lp46Rf_G2lgd39u44Rw/viewform?usp=send_form
Same linked form also lets you share extra invite codes if you have any, so they can match codes up with DHers wanting to try Bluesky.
Given the ongoing deterioration of Twitter as a viable space for the sharing of digital humanities work, ACH has begun exploring alternatives. Bluesky social has the makings of a viable alternative, but it requires an invitation to join. This form was created to facilitate the sharing of these invitation codes. Once you're on the platform you receive one of these codes every two weeks, so be sure to check back and pay it forward. Emails are only being used for the purposes of code sharing and recognition from ACH - they will not be made public. Once you're on Bluesky, check out this DH feed from Mark Sample and fill out the accompanying form to get plugged in - https://bsky.app/profile/samplereality.bsky.social/post/3k42msc4nrb2i.
This study reveals that non-native English speakers, especially early in their careers, spend more effort than native English speakers in conducting scientific activities, from reading and writing papers and preparing presentations in English, to disseminating research in multiple languages.
