This course is meant to introduce students to some of the debates, issues and practices of history writing. Rather than a comprehensive overview, it takes on two themes: materiality and narrative. The idea is to be attentive to the ways that historians assemble their texts. What components are necessary for the construction of historical narratives? What is the nature of narrative and how does it work? How have these changed over time, and in space? This leads to questions about who or what are the subjects of history, and of the relationships among those subjects and historians. We will not answer all of these questions, but we will consider them through the readings, our writings and discussions. By the end of the semester, students will be ready to participate in conversations in their own fields about what’s at stake in the production of historical knowledge. This is a graduate seminar. Students are expected to be active participants in all aspects of this course. Part of the purpose of a class like this is to develop your own voice with regards to broad historical issues, so it will be important to use and develop that voice in flexible and thoughtful ways. Listening is key. We will work to create an environment that is challenging, comfortable, responsive and inclusive. If we succeed, everyone will change their minds, disagree with me and their fellow students in respectful and productive ways, defend their positions, and take lots of chances over the course of the semester.

More than a year ago, 18º North released a story about Dr. Grace McLean and her husband owning a facility and renting it out to students at Caribbean Maritime University (CMU) while her husband was a vice president at the school and she was Acting Permanent Secretary in the education ministry. We also showed how a CMU bus was providing special door-to-door service to and from their facility to the school for their student residents while most other students had to find public transportation or make their way to a central pick-up point.

This reporting helped kickstart the public scrutiny of Dr. McLean that ultimately led to her being sent on leave this past week.

Investigative work by my media colleague Jovan Johnson at The Gleaner earlier this year amped things up even more. His reporting caused Education Minister Fayval Williams to request the Auditor General’s Department (AudGen) expand its probe. The probe found that under Dr. McLean’s watch and under the previous leadership of Permanent Secretary Dean-Roy Bernard a mere government committee with no formal legal status like a department or agency was able to secure J$ million (*US$,) of funding from the ministry with “no account” as to how the money was spent.

The AudGen report was as damning as it was forthright, a noticeable change in tone from its previous Special Audit of the scandal-plagued CMU where the Pamela Monroe Ellis - led department appeared to have gone light on Dr. McLean, according to an 18º North analysis of that report.

For the first time I’ve seen, the AudGen was explicit in **recommending that the minister call in the police to carry out further investigations, and investigations are reportedly underway. The department also recommended that the Financial Secretary surcharge two senior officers to recover the monies lost — another about-turn after 18º North had reported in December that the AudGen had failed to recommend surcharges for almost eight

He may be a funny man, but Chris Rock is a family man, first and foremost.

The legendary comedian is a father of two daughters, Lola Simone Rock and Zahra Savannah Rock, whom he shares with his ex-wife Malaak Compton-Rock. Rock and Compton-Rock split in and their divorce was finalized two years later.

Rock has said he's not a "cool dad," but the Saturday Night Live alum believes his daughters have made him a better comedian. "I think I'm a better artist. Everything I've done since I've had kids is better than the stuff I did before I had kids," he said in

Here's everything to know about Chris Rock's two kids.

Lola Simone Rock, 22

Rock's older daughter Lola was born on June 28, , in New York City. While Lola appeared on several red carpets with Rock as a kid, her life has remained relatively private.

He has always been extremely proud of Lola. Rock posted about her successes in school — and missing her — while on the road in November "Lola got a great report card today. And Zahra got an A on her math test. I'm on tour Missing my babies Dallas tonight," he wrote.

She graduated from the Bergen Passaic chapter of Jack & Jill of America in June where Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith gave a surprise speech at the virtual ceremony.

In a sweet Instagram tribute around the same time, Lola's mother, Compton-Rock, revealed what Lola planned to do next. "I could not be prouder of the young woman she has become and am excited for her to begin university in Europe," Compton-Rock wrote. "Food and travel is her love language and she sees life through the lens of communicating through food, culture and community. I am so excited to parent her through this next phase of life. She is an extraordinary human being and I love her so!"

When Lola turned 18 in June , Rock celebrated by getting tattoos together — his first-ever ink. "First tattoo for King @chr
