In this first history of slavery in western Massachusetts in colonial times, Robert H. Romer demonstrates that slavery was pervasive in the Pioneer Valley in the 1700s, where many of the ministers and other “important people” owned black slaves.

At the moment it's between @mastodon.ART (so many amazing folks I follow are there, even tho I'm such an artist noob), @wandering.shop (all the beloved writers), and mastodon.scot (even though I don't live there anymore, Scotland is forever). Although if there's a #PioneerValley instance (or really any #westernMA server that's not all Boston all the time), let me know. Regionality can be fun.

American style car suburbs are a virulent cancer, and we should stop building them immediately.
In the #pioneervalley , we have tons of great urban centers... we just need to get rid of parking minimums and single family zoning, re-invest in non car local transportation options, and we could have cities and towns like this.

We see cities starting to grok the social, fiscal, and environmental benefits of deprioritizing cars and re-prioritizing humans, but I live in a small city in a moderately dense region (#macorva, the Massachusetts #pioneervalley ), and folks here haven't really even started the journey. How do we kickstart #urbanism in smaller urban areas? #bikes #pedestrians #micromobility #notjustbikes #waroncars

Boosting my own silly toot from a brand new and very, very quiet Massachusetts regional server. Would be nice to get some folks joining over there. #bicoastal https://mastodon.boston/explore
Please boost so folks can see.

I'm anticipating a snowy winter based on nothing a hunch. Here's a snow sculpture that was on the common of Greenfield Massachusetts, circa 1910
