Saw the signature of Samuel Maherero today, in a letter dated March 1904, addressed to a German pastor. At the Evangelical Lutheran Church in the Republic of Namibia archive in #Windhoek. Worth a visit to learn the German-Namibian part of the OvaHerero & OvaNama genocide
Our @colgateuniv sophomore trip to #Namibia has taught us so much, including our visit to #Swakopmund #Genocide museum. To prepare, we learned from @ljameskingsley @FranziiBoehme @JanneLahti__ @tavdhoog. Thank you all!
Happy to have Nicole Sunday Grove @colgateuniv to discuss disruptions and its meanings
Can’t wait to meet you in Montreal! @APSAtweets @InterpretiveMM. I’m available for any and all questions on interpretative methodologies and analysis. With the great @MilliLake ❤️
Yup. The signs have been there for a long time. The only player in town is @rpfinkotanyi as I wrote in 2018, following trends from 1994
After jailing his opponents and winning the last election with 99% of the vote, and after amending the constitution to extend his term, Rwandan President Kagame now says he could rule for another 20 years (giving him 48 years in power)

I taught @lafujii08540’s stunning and necessary work today. Her handwriting had me in tears. Miss you pal
Did you know that @AnAnsoms, @DesrosiersME and I have a new book series with @Boydell_Africa on Field Research and Decolonial Ways of Knowing in #Africa? Formal series announcement to follow. Initial details below. Looking forward to working with YOU!
I just had the most delightful convo with the poet @jobitek about her book *100 Days* for @NewBooksAfrica. It's a collection on the human experience of the 1994 genocide in #Rwanda. It'll be published in a few weeks. #StayTuned
This paper was not possible without the work I did on the structures of silence shaping Jeanne's life in a collection edited by #Parpart & @swatipash in 2019. Took me about a decade of puzzling through Jeanne's narrative
My latest. Everyday violence as context to explain why ordinary Rwandans heeded the call to genocide. It took me something loke 15 years to figure out this argument. It's also inspired by the ground-breaking work of Lee Ann Fujii
Wanted to teach @lafujii08540's incredible work to my students but broke down when I saw her handwriting. The grief remains real and raw. I miss you LAF
