Paul Robeson speaks to reporters on August 28, 1949, about the riot in Peekskill where he was supposed to sing. The local KKK (yes, there was one) objected to his open admiration for Communism (as well as, no doubt, his color) and tore down the stage on which he was supposed to appear. Busloads of Harlem residents had gone to the concert, a benefit for the Harlem chapter of the Civil Rights Congress. Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, and Lee Hays were also on the bill. The ensuing riot injured eight people, two seriously.

Robeson asked Governor Thomas Dewey to open an investigation of the riot, but he refused.

never gonna beat the abo-enjoyer allegations so i may as well just come out: yes i like the extremely flawed trope of the alpha/beta/omega dynamic, but specifically in fics where it criticizes its own society's prejudices and questions the oversexualization of its own system, biological or otherwise—in a sort of meta reflection of reality; sexual assault, abuse, the clash of purity culture and virgin-ridicule, the erasure of asexuality, etc.

ik we're in it for the porn but god does it hit different when it tries, yknow?

#this has been a draft since aug 28 wtf did i read that day that compelled me to write this #i think this was even BEFORE i knew that virtually the first abo fic to ever exist was about j2 #time flies fast huh #fanfic #fanfic culture #fandom #fandom culture #fanfic author #fanfiction #fanfic readers #abo #alpha/beta/omega dynamics #alpha/beta/omega verse #omegaverse #meta #sort of

“1 found it, from before the beginning. A video lost.

These ideas did go from paper to screen. I was there, but no one ever saw it - at least not to my knowledge.

I've just been going over the lore tonight and it hit me: What if it was never released because it said too much...

What if I've been harboring the end this whole time?

The fight to escape has been raging longer than anyone realizes. Were these the original battle plans?”

The construction of Lincoln Center required the obliteration of the neighborhood known as San Juan Hill. It was home to a large population of Blacks, Puerto Ricans, and Afro-Caribbeans when Harlem was still White. Also known as "the Jungles," it was the setting for West Side Story, which opened on Broadway in 1957. It also had a lot of middle-class White residents.

As that was happening, residents were fighting the proposal for an arts complex in the Lincoln Square part of the neighborhood. The poster above urged residents to attend a meeting to stop the project on August 28, 1957. Harris L. Present, a lawyer who had long advocated for the rights of minority groups in the city, led the fight. More than 400 residents showed up. Present urged them to march on City Hall on September 11, hoping to overwhelm the City Planning Commission with pickets and testimony.

Check back here on September 11, 2023, for the sequel. (Spoiler: Lincoln Center was built anyway.)

Hi, i was wondering if you have the screenshot of this panel where sebastian is holding ciel's face upside down and saying something like i shall reclaim your soul as mine or something like that??? Is at the end of the flashback when they met for the first time in ciel's pov. I wanna get it tattooed but im no sure if the pic i have is the one with the official translation in english

Yeah, it's already posted. There are two versions. One at the end of ch138, and another at the beginning of ch139. It's not the end of the flashback, though.

someone: so why have you spent the last 10 years obsessing over a niche pairing that was only recently on screen for a few seconds???

me:

#wait 'til you see half the things i haven't written yet #kdhfl #anyways i found an old word doc from 2014 when i tried to do this challenge where i wrote down at least one good thing from the day #and i remember writing everything out on scraps of paper and then stuffing it all in a jar and then transcribing it at the end of the year #i also remember omitting a bunch of things so no clue entirely what they were about (tho likely the dumb situationships i was in that year)#BUT #amongst that is the start date of the old pokeani rp group i joined (it's cringey but it's also making me laugh in the best way)#''Jan 28- RP blog w/ all my senpais!!!!!''#😂#but then also:#''Aug 2/3- Phaesporia flirts hoLY SHIT <33''#wish i hadn't deleted twitter so i could at least tell my old pal harley who was the cynthia to my diantha in that rp kjhdsfklj #i don't remember the exact wording but it was diantha teasing cynthia about this stupid dress she should wear to the international meeting #and cynthia said something like 'the best part of that dress would be taking it off' completely innocent but i. saw an opportunity.#and had diantha say something like ''i agree. that /would/ be the best part of that dress wouldn't it? ;)'#and it just descended into madness from there and i just haven't been normal since <3 #i should write something special for that day...#talking tag

„tauchgang ins ungewisse“??? 👀👀

ist das ein kari erlhoff fall oder warum hat das so ein interessantes konzept

like

die grey-familie!!

bob soll undercover ermitteln und er darf peter und justus nichts davon verraten!!

die drei fragezeichen erleben Konsequenzen für ihre gesetzesbrüche?? cotta wird teilweise mit reingezogen?? (bzw. auch bedroht. ich mein, wenn herauskommt, dass er beweise unterschlagen und sie zu oft gedeckt hat, kann das ganz schön ungemütlich werden)

das hat einfach ähnliche vibes wie „der namenlose gegner“ und „straße des grauens“. das muss kari erlhoff sein

(checked. yes it is)

#bin grad bei teil 28 von 40 #but ohhhh man this is such an interesting one #die drei fragezeichen #tauchgang ins ungewisse #mine #'peter bildet ein risiko weil er etwas ausplappern könnte. justus ist zu eigensinnig. also betrauen wir dich -bob- mit dieser aufgabe.'#oohhohohoho #wahnsinnig interessant.#i kinda wanna think about that concept though- if they actually faced consequences and so did cotta.#like what if cotta got fired. and the three investigators were banned from doing investigation.#they wouldn’t stop of course and they would somehow try to get things back to normal #hmmm.#in the most likely scenario they would investigate undercover (more or less like in that one adventskalender episode?)#and find out that some kind of master criminal had made a plan to do this #indem er/sie unterlagen hat fälschen lassen. oder gerüchte verbreitet hat. irgendwas in der art.#irgendwas was sie dann disproven können #so wär das wahrscheinlich.#cotta wird ebenfalls entlassen weil er ja für die drei fragezeichen gebürgt hat. und er hat zu oft ein auge zugedrückt für sie.#und es ist ein bisschen nacht der tiger mäßig vielleicht?#dass auch cotta undercover ermittelt?#idk #vielleicht ermitteln sowohl cotta als auch die drei fragezeichen unabhängig von einander und treffen sich dann zufällig bei einer mission #und cotta so: „was macht ihr denn hier?! habt ihr nicht schon genug ärger am hals!?“#justus: „genau darum geht es ja #warte das wird zu lang ich schreib in meinen notizen weiter #long tags
