We call it Historical Archives & Records... He calls it EVIDENCE

Only one more day left to score 40% off books from Penn State University Press (ends December 19).
One of their strengths is in the #history of #witchcraft, including translated primary sources and this wonderful book on the #WitchHunt in the #Basque region of Spain. Yes, you should expect the #SpanishInquisition, but also skepticism (from the Spanish Inquisition), the rare phenomenon of child #witches, and how local beliefs and connections shaped the experiences of the villagers in the middle of the storm. Based on fresh readings of the trial records and new archival material - yes, #historians are still making new discoveries!

Before I head out for the day ->
Recommended #documentary film.Between 1952 and 1960, Britain fought a vicious war in Kenya against the anticolonial Mau Mau movement. It was an exceptionally bloody conflict, with atrocities committed on both sides. For decades, many of the worst abuses by British colonial forces were kept hidden. Piecing together survivor testimonies and expert analysis from British and Kenyan historians, this film tells a complete and detailed story for the first time of how Britain was involved in systemic torture – including accounts of murders, rapes and forced castrations.
A Very British Way of Torture is a film by Ed McGown and produced by Rob Newman.

Walter Rodney, un historien engagé (1942-1980) by Amzat Boukari-Yabara

Alors que Rodney a fait l’objet d’une demi-douzaine de monographies en anglais, cet ouvrage est le premier travail en français consacré à cet historien anglophone. Il s’adresse autant à un public universitaire travaillant sur les mondes africains qu’à un public « militant » engagé sur les questions de développement et de luttes sociales.
