I have NO patience for people who claim that historians should be producing traditional scholarship and not addressing the public.
Historians should be engaging with EVERY public.

The Caen War Museum in Normandy, France is one of many sites I visited during my 2019 tour of the D-Day sites. There's lots to see in the area for those who are into history, and even if you're not, the scenery is beautiful.

Staunchly anti-fascist
Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
