In 2017, archaeologist Steph Halmhofer (@bones_canada) issued a call for submission for the first “Celebration of Women and Non-Binary Archaeologists.” The call was a response to the lack of women and non-binary representation in year-end archaeology roundups, as well as problems with representation in the media and public discourse. We have noticed many of the same problems in the field of History.
Inspired by Halmhofer, and with her permission, we issued an invitation in December 2018 to all women and non-binary folk who consider themselves to be historians to celebrate their personal and professional accomplishments from 2018.
