NOAH BECK FOR AMERICAN STUDIES - 01/30/2025
Studyblr photos be upon ye!
time to address the elephant in the room🐘
I didn’t get a spot to study politics as my second teaching subject (again), which means that I won’t continue studying teaching. Instead, I’m now an american studies major with english studies as my minor! I’m not happy about having to give up on teaching, but it is at least a decision I can live with. Still trying to wrap my head around what classes I do/don’t have to take, and what else I still have to do before the term starts… I’ll see y'all in October:)
Clip from a few years ago when he was interviewed by American Studies magazine. Handy I still go on a tag search every so often. It was posted two days ago and I used iOS photos’ auto-adjust to improve the colour balance.
He’s so damn cute. This is quite funny.

Uni has kinda destroyed my life ngl but I also miss gay academia
I miss coming to my American Anthropology and Literature class all dressed up, people complimenting my outfit, my teacher telling me how focused and smart I am(I’m actually not I just liked his class but loathed anything else expect between-classes smooches with my gf), spending half the class trying to convince him the main characters of the novels he chose are gay, the other two sapphic women in my class backing me up… good times… good times
I miss confusing straight people
A powerful work of reportage and American history that braids the story of the forced removal of Native Americans onto treaty lands in the nation’s earliest days, and a small-town murder in the 1990s that led to a Supreme Court ruling reaffirming Native rights to that land more than a century later.
Before 2020, American Indian reservations made up roughly 55 million acres of land in the United States. Nearly 200 million acres are reserved for National Forests—in the emergence of this great nation, our government set aside more land for trees than for Indigenous peoples.
In the 1830s Muscogee people were rounded up by the US military at gunpoint and forced into exile halfway across the continent. At the time, they were promised this new land would be theirs for as long as the grass grew and the waters ran. But that promise was not kept. When Oklahoma was created on top of Muscogee land, the new state claimed their reservation no longer existed. Over a century later, a Muscogee citizen was sentenced to death for murdering another Muscogee citizen on tribal land. His defense attorneys argued the murder occurred on the reservation of his tribe, and therefore Oklahoma didn’t have the jurisdiction to execute him. Oklahoma asserted that the reservation no longer existed. In the summer of 2020, the Supreme Court settled the dispute. Its ruling that would ultimately underpin multiple reservations covering almost half the land in Oklahoma, including Nagle’s own Cherokee Nation.
Here Rebecca Nagle recounts the generations-long fight for tribal land and sovereignty in eastern Oklahoma. By chronicling both the contemporary legal battle and historic acts of Indigenous resistance, By the Fire We Carry stands as a landmark work of American history. The story it tells exposes both the wrongs that our nation has committed and the Native-led battle for justice that has shaped our country.
