Terrific time, as always, at #WHA2025 in Albuquerque. Great panels and wonderful time meeting up with old friends and making new ones. I'm proud to say I ate chiles on every meal, too.
For folks that attended our #WHA2025 panel on generative AI, here's yet more on its harms (beyond capital-h History).
Some day a Western historian will write about this, and that many Western historians were the crowd marching for democracy and against fascism.

Western History Association in ABQ was so great. Saw old friends (sad I didn’t see many others who I heard were there), talked with prospective authors for my UNM series, had a nice roundtable with other centers people, ate good food, & tried to stand up for democracy at the #NoKings march. #WHA2025
Had the loveliest of times attending my first Western History Association in Albuquerque this week! And extremely humbled to share I received the WHA Jensen-Miller Prize for best article in women's and gender history of the American West 📚🤓

Got out of the Western History Conference #WHA2025 just to find #NoKings protest marching by. Was happy to join for the little bit I could. It was humongous. Patriotic Americans despise fascists like Trump and his MAGA cult
People on the street protesting, with signs about No Kings
No Kings.
Now on central and 22nd
