This week, u/EdHistory101 talks with members of the Nursing Clio Collective and editors of the book, The Nursing Clio Reader: Histories of Sex, Reproduction, and Justice. (Use code RUP30 at checkout for 30%).
The conversation covers the history of the Nursing Cliocollective, the dynamics of such a project as members moved in and out of academia, and how the book came together. They also talk about what makes for a great history essay and what connects with readers, the concept of "bias" and historical empathy, and how historians work. During the conversation, the work of historians such as Judith Leavitt], Susan Reverby, and Janet Golden were mentioned. They're open to pitches from anyone who has an opinion and expertise!
