Her research appeared in a State Department report on Cuba, uncredited. But the Trump Administration drew opposite conclusions to make claims that Cuba is plotting terrorists against the US. But here’s what history actually shows: theconversation.com/trumps-cuba-...

Trump’s Cuba report borrowed heavily from my book on an anti-imperialist movement – but twisted the arguments

The State Department views a 1960s-era internationalist movement based in Havana as a Cuban communist plot to destroy America. The truth was far more nuanced.

If you’re looking for a good read for these final days of summer, I strongly recommend Addie Citchens’s Dominion, a novel about a Black Pentecostal church in the Mississippi Delta that deals with how women often enable the patriarchal structures that facilitate their abuse.

I’ve been promoted to Professor. I want to sincerely thank all of the anonymous external reviewers who took the time to read my work and write letters. And deep thanks to all the friends who have supported me along the way! 💙💙💙

Belated post to congratulate Daniel Doncel Martín on the successful defense of his dissertation, "Colonialism Come Home: The Spanish Civil War and the Global South." It was an absolutely brilliant dissertation (perhaps the best I've ever read) that will become an important book!

And it turns out that Justin Fox of DOGE NEH fame is a UVa graduate. And another DOGE staffer named Marshall Wood is also a UVa grad. The calls are coming from inside the house folks.

God bless ACLA, MLA, and AHA for filing this lawsuit. Why aren’t all our universities filing their own?! If you want to know who canceled your NEH grant that you worked your whole career to get, it was two entitled little dipshits named Nathan Cavanaugh and Justin Fox. www.acls.org/acls-aha-mla...

As a public service, I am reading Scott Beardsley’s book on higher education. Just as Beardsley sacrificed a lucrative career at McKinsey to take a $700k a year job as Dean of Darden on his way to the very sketchy appointment as UVA president, I paid $12 for the kindle edition of “Higher Calling.”

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad. The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

Entering our Too Lazy to Manufacture Consent era

I feel like I haven’t even been properly lied to about the purposes of this war

And adding a unit on the war on drugs and resource extraction to my spring syllabus….

The U.S. history of forced regime changes in other countries has never lead to democracy nor peace, but to civil war, dictatorship, corruption, violence, and death.

Apparently now we don’t even need lies about weapons of mass destruction to invade a country for their oil.

Good morning. You are waking up to the irony of a convicted felon president, who spent years avoiding his own criminal trials, capturing the president of a sovereign nation and holding him captive for criminal trials.

If your position is that regime change should be forced on countries where the president does not respect democratic norms and regularly kidnaps opponents using an officially sanctioned paramiliatary, have I got news for you about your position on the United States

Remember that the US *does not care* about the people of Venezuela. It is not about "narcotrafficking", or "democracy", or whatever propaganda they have going. It is *explicitly* about US control over oil, capital accumulation, and geopolitical power.

As a historian of Latin America, I'm pretty sure the spelling is o-i-l, not d-r-u-g-s.

Two truths and a lie: US-sponsored regime change never ends well US-sponsored regime change is paid for by American taxpayers but brings them no benefits US-sponsored regime change promotes democracy
