I'm an Assistant Professor of History specializing in the political and economic history of the United States in the 20th century, with specific focus on the South. I was drawn into this project by being 200 feet from the second bomb on April 15, and launched a crowdsourced history project as a result. I have since partnered with the Our Marathon project at Northeastern University, which will be represented by one of the project organizers, James McGrath. Although we cannot travel to Florida, we can Skype in.
