I decided to pursue history when I realized that most of the scholarly work that I found interesting and useful to the movements I cared about was historical.
Why did you decide to pursue an M.A. in History?
Supporting emancipatory social movements is one of my top priorities. Many of the people who I admire for their contributions to revolutionary movements – people such as Peter Kropotkin, W.E.B. Du Bois, Franz Fanon, and Angela Davis among many others – were/are scholars. I was most attracted to sociology and history because radical social theory and “history from below” serve an important purpose in causes for social justice.
