#ScholarSunday will now be on our new site

First and foremost, I really appreciate everyone who has subscribed and/or followed me here! It has meant and continues to mean a great deal.

But due to the increasingly frustrating reality of sharing this Substack space with extremist voices whom the site not only platforms but seemingly and frequently supports (such as the push notification a couple months back that featured a Swastika), my wife Vaughn Joy and I have created a new public scholarly website of our own, Black & White & Read All Over. Starting last week, and every week going forward, my #ScholarSunday threads will be shared there, as will my daily AmericanStudies blog, Vaughn’s Review Roulette newsletter, and much more (hopefully including Announcements from y’all!).

Moving platforms isn’t easy, and I know it’s not easy for you all to subscribe to something new either. But it’s worth it, not just for those push factors, but also (as we talked about recently with the awesome Jennifer van Alstyne on her Social Academic podcast) for all the best reasons of building community and creating solidarity and expanding public scholarship and more. So I’m asking y’all to head over to the new site and subscribe there, to keep getting these #ScholarSunday threads and to support all those layers of the work.

If you have questions, ideas for the new site, responses of any kind to share, feel free to do so in comments below as always! Thanks, & I hope to see you at Black & White & Read All Over!
