Today History Dept Manchester University passed a resolution on Black Lives Matter, pledging to do more in terms of recruitment of staff and students of colour, decolonising our curriculum, and acknowledge the deep-seated racial roots of the discipline. So proud of you colleagues

Particularly looking forward to @MarcelT293's book "Local Lives, Parallel Histories" on two villages in East and West Germany, especially as it's got a magnificent chapter on nostalgia pre- and post-Wende!

Today celebrates the #reunification of East and West #Germany! #EastGermany may only be a memory, but its legacy can still be seen and felt. What remains of the #GDR today? @HerrBinar @MarcelT293 @deezed bit.ly/2zLHRiv
