Today in 1946 WWII veteran Maceo Snipes was shot in his back by the KKK the day after he became the first Black person to cast a vote in Taylor County, Georgia.

After he was shot, Mr. Snipes walked three miles to the hospital with his mother. For six hours doctors left him waiting and bleeding. By the time he was seen, he needed a blood transfusion. The doctors said the hospital had no “black blood.” Snipes died two days later.

@krakenteacups I never did MySpace, nor did I have an AOL account (not available in my country.) All the others, yes, including all three sizes of floppy disks.

For years, sexual harassment has been a problem in Antarctic expeditions.

Reports on this issue mark the beginning of a long-overdue reckoning on sexual misconduct in the scientific community.

My class and I watched The Territory at our city's international film festival. The teenagers called it an eye-opener. I recommend it to everyone - very moving and educational.

Have just ended NYE with tears on my face, as always thanks to Tolkien. The Hobbit films, this time, whose ending always makes me cry (for LOTR, the films leave me smiling, but reading the last chapter makes me cry. I must always confirm that Frodo gets his Sam in Valinor.)

@KierraDC @STEMthebleeding @smithsonian Menstrual history is one aspect of history we have very little physical evidence of, unfortunately. Your grandma’s sanitary napkins should, in fact, be preserved for history.

@scruffage @saribethrose @AntheaButler @ACLU After two months of starvation, forced labor and biting cold, these teachers were offered liberty if they became members of the nazified teacher’s union. 97% refused. Quisling’s attempt to remake the curricula to follow nazi ideology failed. We should all be so strong.

[Kine Maria, Cand. Philol 💙💛 @KitSileya]

@scruffage @saribethrose @AntheaButler @ACLU During WWII, 12,000 out of 14,000 teachers signed a refusal to acquiesce to the Quisling government’s nazification of Norwegian schools. They had to close the schools. Some 1,100 teachers were sent to prison camps for continuing to teach at home. 1/2

@VABVOX I read that in Norwegian news too. I do wonder about the veracity - as someone pointed out, he has a tight grip on everything, including the media. If he is sick, I hope he becomes unable to do his job and is ousted. I have enough compassion to avoid wishing he would die, but…

@thehistoryguy Because they don't have Roman archaeology? Because it certainly can't be because you think they don't have ancient, millennia old archaeology and history. Even this Norwegian knows Australia has 60,000 years of human habitation.
