How do we separate historical #fact from #fiction?

Three videos show how historians examine primary sources (like artifacts and eyewitness accounts) and secondary sources (later analyses) to piece together events from 1800s #Britain, including the story behind why #London police are called "bobbies." 📚📜

Today In Labor History April 7, 1804: Haitian general, Toussaint Louverture died on this day. He was one of the most prominent members of the Haitian revolution for independence from France. The slave revolt against the French began in 1791 with the call by Dutty Boukman, a vodou priest. Encouraged by the French and American revolutions. Louverture led 100,000 enslaved Haitians in revolt, winning their freedom in 1793. In 1804, Haiti became first free black republic in the world. The U.S. refused to recognize Haiti for the next 70 and France extracted millions in restitution, destroying any hope of ever moving out of deep poverty. Louverture was betrayed in the end and died in prison. For a fantastic history of the Haitian Revolution, read “The Black Jacobins,” by C.L.R.James.

Love this suggestion to turn a book into a zine — the idea was to make non-fiction books more accessible, but I think it works great for fiction too. I'd even suggested a few months back to a friend whose #book comes out this fall.

I've done this for the new #solarpunk anthology coming out Earth Day!

This ep of my pod talks about zines and how they're a sign of cultural change: brightgreenfutures.substack.co
