Random quote of the day:
“[History has taught me] kindness: we exist because many before us have survived hardship and have chosen to share their space, resources and stories. And humility as a scholar: we very rarely discover anything but reinterpret and add to palimpsests.”
—Prof. Olivette Otele, History Today, Volume 68, Issue 1, January 2018
