Tad Stoermer on Instagram: "Interesting comment from someone who doesn’t even follow me—claiming I wouldn’t “like” being challenged in class. That’s a curious take on education. I don’t teach to be agreed with. I teach to help people think. To co-create meaning. To ask hard questions together. That’s not indoctrination—it’s the opposite. And if your idea of education is just deciding who gets to impose their worldview, then.... #teach #education #publichistory"

Tad Stoermer on Instagram: "There is a duty to disobey. The president may have immunity. But those carrying out his directives don’t. Federal employees—an agent, a staffer, a lawyer, an auditor—already know when they’re being asked to break the law. Most of them have been trained to spot it. Some of them are documenting it. And all of them need to hear this: “I was just following orders” won’t protect you. It never has. What we need now is refusal. Quiet, strategic, collective refusal. That’s ho

Tad Stoermer on Instagram: "This isn’t a “garden.” It’s a graveyard—for the truth. The NEH and NEA just pledged $34 million for statues of state-approved “heroes” in time for America250. That’s where the money’s going—not to real history, but to marble mythology. Welcome to the new Nationalist Endowment for the Humanities. More than $400 million is still on the table. And this is how it starts. #America250 #PublicHistory #ResistanceHistory #NEH #NEA #HonestHistory #howrevolutionary"

It’s about how immigration built this country, how refugees found (and still fight for) spaces of welcome, and how community steps up when institutions fail. It’s resistance history at its core.

Tad Stoermer on Instagram: "The false story about the Greensboro Lunch Counter showed exactly how authoritarianism works. The goal isn’t just to erase the past — it’s to destabilize the present so you feel isolated, overwhelmed, and unsure what’s real. That’s how they win: by breaking trust and controlling reality itself. And that’s why resistance history teaches us to be our own filter. Verify everything. Question even trusted sources. Not because we don’t trust — but because we are fighting fo

Tad Stoermer on Instagram: "I appreciate this question because it speaks to where so many Americans are—trying to make sense of what we were taught and what we’re seeing now. But the goal isn’t to find a neat counter-narrative. It’s to begin the harder work of deconstruction. The idea that the “founders” were extraordinary, or did extraordinary things, is itself part of the problem. That’s the myth. And as white Americans, we’re often shaped by those assumptions without even realizing it. So we

If you’re an artist, filmmaker, or creator looking for federal funding, here’s what you need to know: 🔴 All funding now prioritizes “America250.” That means projects must align with a nationalist history agenda—one rooted in the 1776 Commission’s whitewashed version of America. 🔴 The Challenge America program is go

Tad Stoermer on Instagram: "“This feels like the 1930s” is not wrong. But the comparison isn’t about vibes—it’s about structure. State capture. Legal erosion. Propaganda as patriotism. And a professional class unwilling to act until it’s too late. What made Nazism possible didn’t happen overnight. And neither did resistance. It came from failure—when people finally realized the courts wouldn’t save them, and public opinion had already shifted. Europe remembers. America doesn’t. And that makes us

Tad Stoermer on Instagram: "From Reconstruction-era betrayals and the lessons of the Triangle Shirtwaist fire to the McCarthy purges and beyond, history reveals a brutal pattern: power manufactures distance, the circle of 'privilege' shrinks, and those who believe their proximity or credentials grant immunity eventually find themselves on the curb. The bottom line? Authoritarian power is an autoimmune disease. If you’re outside the command bunker, you’re a target. #resistancehistory #resistance

Tad Stoermer on Instagram: "The most important resistance this week (so far, it's only Wednesday) happened at the Library of Congress. When a regime appointee tried to take over the Copyright Office without authority, the staff just said no. This small act is a class in basic resistance. It's not revolution, it's knowing your job, knowing the rules, and having the courage to stand your ground. You make abusive authority pay for every single attempt to try for more.

Tad Stoermer on Instagram: "Let’s be real—nobody’s gonna engage with a post about how hard it is to dismantle the Patriot Myth. It’s way easier to just accept the version of history we were all handed: Washington the saint, the Revolution as a pure fight for freedom, the Founders as flawless visionaries. But that’s exactly the problem. The myth isn’t just a story—it’s a system, baked into textbooks, archives, political rhetoric, and even AI. Even when we try to break it down, we’re still working

Tad Stoermer on Instagram: "I never do this. But this one’s different. If my work breaks down the patriot myth, Rachel Maddow’s PREQUEL shows the fascist truth—right here in the U.S., before and during WWII. The depth of antisemitism. The reach of organized fascism. The American laws that inspired the Nazis. What makes this public history? Rachel doesn’t just reveal it—she builds on solid scholarship, makes it usable, and makes it matter right now. So I’m giving away a few copies—thanks to @crow
