Today:

Welcome to this week's instalment of /r/AskHistorians' Day of Reflection. Nobody can read everything that appears here each day, so in this thread we invite you to share anything you'd like to highlight from the last week - an interesting discussion, an informative answer, an insightful question that was overlooked, or anything else.

I've been a long-time lurker here but I'm delurking to highlight /u/Historiagrephour's response to this question about depictions of masculinity in the 1995 film Rob Roy. I especially liked that it was both a historical analysis and a critical analysis of the way that the filmmakers approached their subject.

I'm very excited to see the level of questions asked on the Sikh Empire AMA. I assumed wrongly that they would be overall very basic questions, but I've been thumbing through notes, books, and resources all day yesterday and the good part of today to make sure I'm giving the best answers. This community has really grown since I joined it a little over a year ago and I'm glad to see the direction it's headed in.
