Welcome to c/history! History is written by the posters.

Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember...we're all comrades here.
Do not post reactionary or imperialist takes (criticism is fine, but don't pull nonsense from whatever chud author is out there).
When sharing historical facts, remember to provide credible souces or citations.

MODERATORS
The Jakarta Method
An Indigenous People's History of the United States
Settlers (am reading this now)
Black Reconstruction in America (frankly, most modern historiography on Reconstruction is in agreement with this thick-ass book, but DuBois was the OG)
SuperImperialism (also thick)
The Fort Bragg Cartel
American Sirens (this and The Fort Bragg Cartel are pretty quick reads compared to the others, and the ones you can most easily shoe-horn into conversation with regular people)
These all sound interesting, especially SuperImperialism. Thanks for sharing!
