Note too the excellent questions (in the link) posed during the #NCS18 race & inclusivity plenary and the #MedievalistsOfColor-sponsored reception. Important issues for all of #MedievalTwitter to consider #LitOOC @NCS_Chaucer twitter.com/JonathanHsy/status/10253...
Next dose of positivity for #MedievalTwitter: @CBarrington’s writeup on Day 2 of #NCS18. Kudos @NCS_Chaucer for race & inclusivity plenary, centering #MedievalistsOfColor, global/queer community. #LitPOC...
Hey #medievaltwitter we could all use some positivity right now. Sharing @CBarrington's affirmative post about inclusivity and global approaches at #NCS18. @NCS_Chaucer reminds me that another world is indeed possible....
Kudos to Ruth Evans, outgoing Executive Director of @NCS_Chaucer, for the detailed email just sent to membership post-#NCS18. Solid review of 6 years of work - an excellent model of sustained, proactive commitment to inclusivity & transparency in the organization #medievaltwitter
Some worlds beyond (multiethnic) Britain, #NCS18: maps of 14c Mali kingdom and Mamluk realms, 14c Persian #Shanameh MSS @AgaKhanMuseum; “Wahala Dey O” (Nigerian Pidgin English staging of Miller’s Tale by Ufuoma Overo-Tarimo) #globalmedieval #medievaltwitter
Glad I got a chance to visit the @AgaKhanMuseum during #NCS18. A reminder of just how wide and interconnected the premodern world really was. #globalmedieval #MedievalTwitter twitter.com/jonathanhsy/status/10189...
One of the most moving things about #ncs18 has been the prospect — and reality — of medieval European and indigenous/Native worlds sharing space, and not “facing in opposite directions.” This is the world in which I want to live, think, move #MedievalTwitter #globalmedieval
Fascinating how museum gift shops shape/reflect public ideas of the past. “Viking” & “Inuit” items on opposite shelves. Maybe someday we’ll see these worlds actually share the same space #ncs18 #MedievalTwitter #globalmedieval #allegoryforsomething
Literally just said “sorry!” three times on the metro today #whenincanada #ncs18
