POV: You accept what you think is a free trip abroad, only to end up sentenced to life in a Chinese prison.

In 2014, Chicago, Illinois, native Dawn Michelle Hunt, who was working as a receptionist, traveled to Hong Kong after being told she had won a contest.

She later traveled to mainland China, where she was given luggage containing designer purses before being told she had won a trip to Australia.

At the airport, Chinese authorities discovered drugs concealed inside the purses.

Dawn was arrested and spent about three years awaiting trial. She was sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve, which was later changed to life imprisonment.

Dawn has maintained that she was deceived and did not knowingly transport the drugs. Her family has continued campaigning for her release.

She has now spent more than 12 years imprisoned in China.

The man who invented the operation that saves babies born with blue-baby syndrome had no medical degree, no college degree, and was listed on the payroll as a JANITOR.

He guided the first operation from a stool behind the surgeon's shoulder, telling him where to cut.

Vivien Thomas. He had been saving to study medicine when the 1929 crash wiped out his savings and the bank holding them.

He took a job as a lab assistant at Vanderbilt for a janitor's wage, because that was the classification available.

Within a couple of years he was running experimental surgery — developing techniques, performing operations on his own, training surgeons.

He moved to Johns Hopkins with Alfred Blalock in 1941, where he was still paid as a janitor and had to enter through a back door.

He was the only Black man in that building not carrying a mop.

He worked out the surgical fix for tetralogy of Fallot — the condition killing infants who turned blue and died — and built the instruments for it.

The first operation on a child was in 1944. Blalock, who had never done the procedure, asked Thomas to stand behind him and talk him through it.

The surgeons on the paper became world famous. Thomas was not credited.

Hopkins hung his portrait in 1971 and gave him an honorary doctorate in 1976. Generations of surgeons he personally trained insisted on it.

He was paid as a cleaner while inventing heart surgery.

Illinois man, Jeremiah Duncan, was arrested after shooting and killing his baby mother. He then took the baby and got into a car crash that caused the car to catch fire, the baby was left inside the car and died. They were in a custody battle

She was bought at fourteen by a man who assaulted her for five years and fathered two of her children.

When she finally fought back and he died, Missouri put her on trial — and the court ruled she had no right to defend herself. Celia. 1855.

Missouri law at the time said a woman could use deadly force to defend her honour.

Celia's lawyers argued that law covered her. The judge ruled it did not — because the statute said "any woman," and Celia was not legally a woman. She was property.

That was the finding. Not that she was lying. Not that it had not happened. That the protection did not extend to her, because she was a thing.

She was convicted and sentenced to hang. The state waited until she had given birth — the baby was stillborn — and then executed her in December 1855.

She was nineteen years old.

Her story is the kind of buried history that we must never forget https://t.co/V6OJtazidd

Everything is so quick now and I really think that’s part of why we’re so nostalgic. Music is losing bridges, big choruses, and vocal moments. TV shows are 8-10 episodes with no filler, holiday episodes, or time to just live with the characters. We need to go back to the basics.

@Johnny039564835 @judedominik Actually, she just said she was abused. You think the men she slept with were below the age of 18 with her???

Incase you are wondering what Russia has on @realDonaldTrump, it's blackmail on organized crime, in particular human / child trafficking and rape. Maybe the police should stop shooting protestors and arrest real criminals.
