#District XVII
Text
On Friday March 22, a video circulated of TNI (Indonesian military) soldiers torturing of a civilian in Papua. In the video, the victim is submerged in a drum filled with water with his hands tied behind his back. The victim was alternately beaten and kicked by the TNI members. The victim's back was also slashed with a knife.
The video circulated quickly and was criticised by a number of parties. Gustav Kawer from the Papua Association of Human Rights Advocates (PAHAM) condemned the incident and called for the perpetrators to be brought to justice. This was then followed by National Human Rights Commission (Komnas HAM), Indonesian Human Rights Watch (Imparsial), the Diocese, the church and students.
Meanwhile, Cenderawasih/XVII regional military commander (Pangdam) Major General Izak Pangemanan tried to cover up the crime by saying it was a hoax and the video was a result of editing. This argument was later refuted by the TNI itself and it was proven that TNI soldiers were the ones who committed the crime.
The torture occurred on February 3 in Puncak Regency, Papua. The victim who was seen in the video was Defianus Kogoya, who had been arrested along with Warinus Murib and Alianus Murib. They were arrested and accused of being spies for the West Papua National Liberation Army-Free Papua Organisation (TPNPB-OPM), a cheap accusation which the TNI and police were subsequently unable to prove at all.
The three were arrested when the TNI was conducting a search in Amukia and Gome district. When Warinus was arrested, his legs were tied to a car and he was dragged for one kilometre, before finally being tortured. Alianus meanwhile was also taken to a TNI post and tortured. After several hours, they were finally handed over to a police post because there was not enough evidence to prove the TNI's accusations.
Defianus finally fainted, while Warinus died of his injuries. Warinus' body was cremated by the family the next day on February 4. Defianus meanwhile is still suffering and remains seriously ill. This is a TNI crime in Papua.
But that's not all. On February 22, 2022, the TNI also tortured seven children in Sinak district, Puncak. The seven children were Deson Murib, Makilon Tabuni, Pingki Wanimbo, Waiten Murib, Aton Murib, Elison Murib and Murtal Kurua. Makilon Tabuni died as a result.
On August 22, the TNI murdered and mutilated four civilians in Timika. They were Arnold Lokbere, Irian Nirigi, Lemaniel Nirigi and Atis Tini. The bodies of the four were dismembered: the head, body and legs were separated into several parts, put in sacks then thrown into a river.
Six days later, soldiers from the Infantry Raider Battalion 600/Modang tortured four civilians in Mappi regency, Papua. The four were Amsal P Yimsimem, Korbinus Yamin, Lodefius Tikamtahae and Saferius Yame. They were tortured for three hours and suffered injuries all over their bodies.
Three days later, on August 30, the TNI again tortured two civilians named Bruno Amenim Kimko and Yohanis Kanggun in Edera district, Mappi regency. Bruno Amenim ended up dying while Yohanis Kanggun suffered serious injuries.
On October 27, three children under the age of 16 were tortured by the TNI in Keerom regency. They were Rahmat Paisel, Bastian Bate and Laurents Kaung. They were tortured using chains, coils of wire and water hoses. The incident occurred in the Yamanai Village, Arso II, Arso district.
On February 22, 2023, TNI personnel from the Navy post in Lantamal X1 Ilwayap tortured two civilians named Albertus Kaize and Daniel Kaize. Albertus Kaize died of his injuries. This crime occurred in Merauke regency, Papua.
Between 2018 and 2021 Amnesty International recorded that more than 95 civilians had been tortured and killed by the TNI and the police. These crimes target indigenous Papuans, and the curve continues to rise year by year, ever since Indonesia occupied Papua in 1961.
These crimes were committed one after another without a break, and followed the same pattern. So it can be concluded that these was not the acts of rogue individuals or one or two people as the TNI argues to reduce their crimes to individual acts.
Rather, they are structural (systematic) crimes designed to subdue the Papuan nation, to stop all forms of Papuan resistance for the sake of the exploitation and theft of Papua's natural resources.
The problems in Papua cannot be solved by increasing the number of police or soldiers. The problems in Papua must be resolved democratically. This democratic solution must include establishing a Human Rights Court for all perpetrators of crimes in Papua since the 1960s, and not just the perpetrators in the field, but also those responsible in the chain of command.
Only this will break the pattern of crimes that are occurring and provide justice for the Papuan people. A Human Rights Court will also mean weakening the anti-democratic forces that exist in Indonesia and Papua, namely military(ism).
A prerequisite for achieving democratisation is to eliminate the old forces, the garbage of history. The cleaner the process is carried out, the broader and deeper the democracy that can be achieved. This also includes the demands of the Papuan people to be given the right to determine their own destiny.
This is not a task for some later day, but is the task of the Papuan people today. Nor is the task of the United Liberation Movement for West Papua (ULMWP) political elite or political activists alone, but it is the task of all Papuan people if they want to extract themselves from the crimes of the TNI and police or Indonesian colonialism.
Independence can only be gained by the struggle of the ordinary people themselves. The people must fight, the people must take to the streets, the people must build their own ranks, their own alternative political tool, and fight in an organised and guided manner.

PL:
Ratusz, Sandomierz
Początkowo ratusz w Sandomierzu był budowlą gotycką o prostej architekturze na planie kwadratu. Wzniesiony został w XIV wieku, tuż po najeździe Litwinów. W XVI w. rozbudowano go w formę wydłużonego prostokąta, a następnie zwieńczono attyką trójstrefową, której autorstwo przypisywane jest Janowi Marii Padovano. Na początku XVII w. od zachodu dobudowano wieżę.
Na ścianie południowej ratusza znajduje się zegar słoneczny wykonany w technice sgraffito przez Tadeusza Przypkowskiego, byłego właściciela muzeum zegarów w Jędrzejowie. Przed ratuszem natomiast podziwiać można figurę Matki Boskiej Niepokalanej z 1776 r.
Piwnice ratusza służyły prawdopodobnie jako więzienie. Możliwe nawet, że więźniowie byli tu torturowani - świadczyć o tym mogą haki oraz kółka zamontowane na ścianach.
Obecnie w Ratuszu mieści się siedziba Muzeum Okręgowego oraz Urząd Stanu Cywilnego. Całość pomieszczeń utrzymana jest w renesansowo-barokowym klimacie.
O godzinie 12.00 z wieży ratuszowej grany jest hejnał sandomierski.
EN:
Town Hall, Sandomierz, Poland
Initially, the town hall in Sandomierz was a Gothic building with simple architecture on a square plan. It was built in the 14th century, just after the Lithuanian invasion. In the 16th century, it was expanded into an elongated rectangle and then topped with a three-zone attic, the author of which is attributed to Giovanni Maria Padovano. At the beginning of the 17th century, a tower was added on the western side.
On the southern wall of the town hall there is a sundial made in the sgraffito technique by Tadeusz Przypkowski, former owner of the clock museum in Jędrzejów. In front of the town hall you can admire the statue of Our Lady Immaculate from 1776.
The town hall's basements probably served as a prison. It is even possible that prisoners were tortured here - this is evidenced by the hooks and rings mounted on the walls.
Currently, the Town Hall houses the District Museum and the Civil Registry Office. The rooms are decorated in a Renaissance-Baroque style.
At 12.00, the Sandomierz bugle call is played from the town hall tower.

Mappa originale, risalente al 1660, di Nuova Amsterdam (in olandese Nieuw Amsterdam), villaggio fortificato del XVII secolo e parte della colonia olandese dei Nuovi Paesi Bassi, insediamento che sarebbe poi diventato la città di New York.
Il nome con cui è nota la mappa è "Castello Plan", ma il titolo originale è "Afbeeldinge van de Stadt Amsterdam in Nieuw Neederlandt" ovvero "Immagine della città di Amsterdam nei Nuovi Paesi Bassi".
La zona è attualmente il Financial District di Lower Manhattan.
Il nome "Wall Street" deriva proprio dalla presenza di un muro nel punto esatto in cui oggi sorge la famosa via newyorkese.
Più precisamente una palizzata, costruita dagli olandesi per difendere la colonia dagli attacchi dei nativi americani, degli inglesi e dei coloni del New England.
La costruzione del muro iniziò nel 1653. Fatto di legname e terra, con i suoi dodici piedi di altezza (quasi quattro metri), divideva e marcava il confine dall’Hudson River fino all’East River a nord di Nuova Amsterdam.
La via lungo la quale si erigeva la palizzata venne ribattezzata Waal Straat, l’equivalente olandese dell’odierna Wall Street.
Nel 1664, con la vittoria degli inglesi sotto Carlo II, il villaggio diventerà New York, in onore del fratello del re Giacomo, duca dell’omonima città inglese.

Slotvinsky Estate, Rovanichi, Belarus
See the video here - https://youtu.be/XRG5MwPLSHQ
Video taken with a DJI Action 1 & DJI Air 2s
SLOTVINSKY ESTATE
In Belarus, there are many estates of influential dynasties that are located in small and large villages in the country, and one of these estates located in the Rovanichi village is the Slotvinsky Estate. The village Rovanichi is an agro-town located in the Chervensky district of the Minsk region in Belarus.
It was first mentioned in written sources in 1535, when, as a result of the reform, the area became part of the Minsk district of the Minsk region. In the next XVII century, the Mossalskys owned the village. And in 1790 Andrei Slotvinsky became the owner of Rovanichi. After the second division of the Commonwealth, the estate became part of the Russian Empire.
Photo above taken with a DJI Action 1
The place developed: in 1799 a stone church of St. Anthony was built here, a hundred years later, in 1886, it could already boast of the presence of two Orthodox and one Catholic church, a public school, a cloth factory, a brewery and a starch factory. The construction of the manor-palace dates back to these times.
Photo above taken with a DJI Action 1
By 1804, (as evidenced by the inventory of the estate), the manor existed in Rovanichi. It included several different buildings: the manor house itself, agricultural buildings, a bakery, a cheese factory and a dairy plant, a brovar, a forge, a bathhouse, etc.
In the middle of the XIX century, the village was owned by Anthony Ludwig Slotvinsky, who was the marshal of the Minsk province, constructed this magnificent palace from 1853 to 1859, and chose for it’s location, a picturesque view — a terrace that towered above the Usha River.
Photo above taken with a Nokia 8.3
The inscription 1952 at the top of the building was added when the building was a school and then after 1971, it was used as a Hospital). At the end of the XX century, the estate was finally abandoned and since this time it has been in ruins.

Description of the architecture of Slotvinsky estate in RovanichiSlotvinsky estate is a rectangular one-story building. It is located on a high residential base with protruding portraits of the Doric order on the facades. They create the effect of having a second floor near the building.

A portico — is a covered gallery, the ceiling of which is supported by columns. These columns can support this architectural element in three ways: directly, with the help of an architrave installed on them (beam flooring) or with the assistance of arches thrown between the columns.

Travis Scott And The Astroworld Legal Case
By Caroline Hood, University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Class of 2021
May 21, 2022
The latest legal news concerning Travis Scott is that he is being sued by an Ohio Couple who are holding him legally responsible for the woman’s miscarriage due to her attendance at Astroworld[i] This is just the latest in legal suits that have followed Travis Scott since that night on November 5, 2021. [ii]
But, who is Travis Scott and what happened at Astroworld? Travis Scott is a rapper who also sings, and produces music. He is worth 60 million and has been in the music business since 2008, releasing music on the platform Myspace. He has since recorded music with stars such as Kanye West and Justin Bieber and enjoyed great success, his album Rodeo hitting number three on the Billboard charts. He also created his own music festival, Astroworld which is held in Houston, Texas every year. [iii] This festival was held for the first time in 2018. [iv]
It seemed in the past the festival had been a fun chance for Travis Scott to interact with his fans. However, in 2021, the festival created a catastrophic outcome which affected many lives. At Astroworld, the crowd surged into a small space and the environment became tighter and tighter. People had trouble breathing. They called for Travis Scott to stop in between songs, but it is unclear whether he could hear them. The concert did not stop and people passed out, some which could not be revived. [v]
Apparently, these people suffered compression asphyxia, according to the medical examiner who reviewed the bodies from Astroworld. The National Library of Medicine states, “In compression asphyxia, the respiration is prevented by external pressure on the body. It is usually due to external force compressing the trunk due to heavy weight over chest/abdomen and is associated with internal injuries.[vi] This is what happened to the people at Astroworld. There were standing so tightly together the force of people’s bodies did not allow them to breathe and caused other various internal injuries, resulting in ten deaths and thousands of injuries [vii]
Since that night, more than 400 lawsuits have been filed.[ix] However, all of the cases have been compiled into one single case which will go before the court. It represents 2,800 victims who claim that Travis Scott and Live Nation, the entertainment company which hosted the concert, were negligent in how they planned and executed Astroworld[x][xi]. The court cases were combined to ensure that the pre-trial period was efficient. If court cases are added later, they will also be reviewed with the other cases.[xii] This is a common practice in cases involving mass injuries to avoid trying a multitude of cases with so much in common. Therefore, the case mentioned above, the miscarriage by the Ohio couple, will be added to the larger court case.
In March, state District Judge Kristen Hawkins, who has been appointed by a judicial panel of the Supreme Court of Texas met for the first time with the members of the court case since the lawsuits had been compiled into one. She issued a gag order so that this suit would not be decided by what the public thinks but the jury. [xiv]
Travis Scott seems to have taken a hit due to this negative press coverage. There have been several petitions circling to remove him as a Golden voice performer or arrest him.[xv] However, the negative effect to his career does not appear to be that severe. He performed May 15, 2022 at the awards show thanks to Sean “Diddy” Combs who wanted him to be a part of the show[xvi]
One can only wait and see what the true outcome will be as Travis Scott releases new music in 2022, entitled Utopia, and the court cases are decided.[xvii] However, the cases might not be brought to court for several years. [xviii]

PROCLAMATION
All persons not deputied as special officers are ordered to
disarm in a proclamation issued shortly before noon by Mayor
Evans. Persons carrying guns after that hour will be arrested.
The proclamation:
"Armed troops, well equipped, have now arrived who, with
the assistance of the local authorities, will be able to control
the situation in this city. Everyone is directed to preserve law
an dorder and to avoid under every circumstance, the gather-
ing on the streets of curious and excited masses. This only
tends to make the situation worse for the authorities in restor-
ing order, making it more burdensome and complicated. No
loyal citien of Tulsa will willingly commit any act which en-
dangers the peace and security of the city. All parties, without
direct authority from the chief of police or the sheriff or Tulsa
county, who may be found after 11 a. m. today bearing arms and
engaged in any act liable to promote a breach of the peace will
be arrested and prosecuted under the Riot Act.
"Headquarters of the National Guards is established in
Room 306, City Hall, at Fourth street and Cincinnati avenue,
and except for duly appointed policeman and deputy sheriffs
all permission to bear ar mfsrom, and after, the publication of
this proclamation must be countersigned by Gen. Charles F.
Barrett or Col. B. F. Markham, commanding the National Guards.
"Gen. Charles F. Barrett concurs in this proclamation."
Dated 10:30 a. m., June First 1921.
"T. D. EVANS, Mayor."
Barrett is Put in Full
Charge by Robertson
OKLAHOMA CITY. - Martial law in Tulsa was ordered by
Governor Robertson at 11:15 o'clock and Adjutant General Bar-
rett placed in command of the city. The order was given over
the long distance telephone and a proclamation to this effect is
being prepared and will be issued immediately.
The order of Governor Robertson invoking martial law
over Tulsa has been extended to include all of Tulsa county. The
order will displace civil control and place it in supreme com-
mand of the adjutant general.
The governor's telegram to the adjutant general follows:
"I have declared martial law throughout Tulsa county and
am holding you responsible for maintenance of order, safety of
lives and protection of property. You will do all things neces-
sary to attain these objects.
(Signed) "J. B. A. ROBERTSON, Governor."
The governor acted after being in communication with of-
ficers in Tulsa. Attorney General Freeling will go to Tulsa this
afternoon.
"The situation at Tulsa seems peculiar to me," Governor
Robertson said. "With power vested in all city and county offi-
cials there to deputie and put into the law enforcement every
citien of the city if necessary, I cannot understand how this
trouble was allowed to get such a start."
Conversation with Adjutant General Barrett was to the ef-
fect that it was impossible for the fire department to enter the
negro section and that the flames were raging unabated.
All available guardsmen will be placed on duty once in
the negro section, which has been entirely destroyed by flames,
General Barrett said when he r[eceived order?] from Governor
Robertson placing the county under martial law.
Orders have been issued to disarm citizens. Later the
military will issu ecrededntials to men chosen as special officers.
A military commission, composed of seven city officials
and business men, to pass upon the guilt of the 6,000 negroes
now held in concentration camp, was formed shortly before
noon by Mayor Evans and Chief of Police Gustafson and ap-
proved by General Barrett. This committee will pass upon the
guilt of those held under guard in the various camps, naming
those who will be held for trial for inciting the black populace
to riot.
The personnel of the committee: C. S. Younkman, water
commissioner; Albert Hunt, district judge; H. F. Newblock,
city commissioner; C. S. Aver, oil man; Grant McCullough,
banker; F. E. White, business man; Alva J. Niles, banker.
The Tulsa Tribbune
RESTORE ORDER
LYNCH law leads not to law but to lawlessness and
lawlessness is a repudiation of government.
Lynch law is a fire brand in the hands of those
who thoughtlessly elect to establish mob rule for law
and order. Lynch law is an impassioned appeal to the
hatreds of prejudice. It brings ignominy and disaster
to any community that falls its victims.
Whatever ground it may have had, a story starts
that a negro in the county jail was to be lynched. Out
of curiosity a crowd collects. A small band of negroes
brings firearms onto the scene. At first they were few
At the outset there was nothing to indicate that the
whites had been moved to a battling protest. But when
the first small band of negroes added to their armed
forces the war began. Tulsa found itself experiencing
a night of terror and the new day dawned with the
[illegible]nd of battle and the sky clouded with the smoke that
rises above the burning buildings and shacks in the
negro end of town.
At such a time as this it is the first duty of every
citizen to restore law and order as quickly as possible.
The National Guard is equal to cope with the rioting
negroes who are already under control. Let every citi-
zen do his duty and lend his fullest influence to the
prompt restoration of law and order. Do this for the
good name of Tulsa. Keep off the streets where there
are evidences of disorder as much as possible. Make
no needlessly threatening display of arms. The state's
soldiers can do that and do it with the authority of the
law.
Now is the time for every citizen to keep a cool
head, to keep out of mob collections. The quickest and
surest way to restore law is to respect the law. Let the
authorized agents of the law handle those who will
not.
BLACK QUARTER BURNS TO GROUND;
FOUR GUARD UNITS TAKE CHARGE
Seven white persons are known to be dead.
One white woman, shot six times, is expected to die.
Thirty-four whites are wounded in three hospitals. Many other wounded persons are
in their own homes.
Sixty-eight negroes, including men, women, and children, are dead, according to reports
from all districts of the black belt where heavy fighting was waged throughout the night
and up to 9 o-clock this morning.
One hundred blacks are believed wounded.
The officials are in control of the situation and no more armed conflicts are expected.
The entire black belt of Tulsa is a charred mass. The business section of
Greenwood avenue is levelled. Scarcely a building escaped the flames set by
torches when an army of whites invaded that district early this morning to an-
ticipate a general attack on the part of the blacks. Officials at noon today were
unable to estimate the total loss which will extend into many thousands of dollars.
It is estimated that more than 500 homes of negroes were burned. A score of
business buildings and a number of factories were razed. Heavy stocks of mer-
chandise were a total loss.
The fire carried by a strong north wind spread into the white residence
section adjoining the black settlement on North Detroit avenue. Ten homes in a
row were burned before firemen could check the flames. One house was burned
in the immediate vicinity of Standpipe hill.
At 12:30 o'clock the fire in this district was rapidly being brought under
control.
Hundres of white women and children fled from their homes as the leap-
ing flames fanned by a strong wind from the north ate their way to the white
belt. About 11 o'clock the wind subdued, giving the firemen a chance to
successfully combat the flames.
A special train bearing 350 National Guardsmen under the command
of Adjutant General Barrett arrived at 9:05 o'clock this morning. General Bar-
rett issued a statement from guard headquarters at the police station that mar-
tial law would not be declared until he had made a hurried investigation.
Only developments will determine if it is to be invoked,
Barrett added. Companies A and B, totaling 150 men, arrived
on the special train from Oklahoma City, with a second troop
train due from the capital about 11 o'clock. Company B and a
sanitary detachment, both located here, are also on duty and
have been since midnight.
The guards after establishing headquarters in Second
street in front of the police station were ordered to various sec-
tions of the black belt. One contingent was sent to Meulty park,
where several hundred negroes are interned.
General Barrett is now acting under orders issued by Mayor
Evans, Chief of Police Gustafson and Sheriff Bill McCullough.
Following a night of rioting, snip-
ing and open clashes between whites
and blacks hundreds of armed men
invaded the negro district to remove
the menace the blacks there offered.
At 5 o'clock scores of armed men in
automobiles drove to the north side
of the black belt in the vicinity of
Standpipe hill. These white fighters
formed one wing of an encircling
movement entirely surrounding the
negro district. Hundreds of pedes-
trains advanced on the black belt
from the south and west. Hundreds
of shots were fired. Many negroes
were reported to have been wound-
ed while a number of whites were
taken to hospitals with wounds.
The heaviest fighting this morn-
ing was in the extreme northern sec-
tion of the black belt. Hundreds of
negroes were concentrated in a val-
ley at the base of Sunset hill. Fifty
were barricaded in a church.
Machine Guns In Use.
Deadly volleys of steel were poured
[into?] the ranks of the whites as they
[advanced?] in open formation against
the blacks who stood their ground.
Finally the whites were forced to re-
treat. A call was sent to police head-
quarters for reinforcements. A num-
ber of guardsmen with two machine
guns were rushed in automobiles to
the scene of the fighting. The ma-
chine guns were set up and for 20
minutes poured a stream of lead on
the negroes who sought refuge be-
hind buildings, telephone poles and
in ditches.
The heavy firing came to a sud-
den halt when a huge white cloth
was raised aloft by the negroes. The
church where many negroes were
barricaded was riddled with bullets,
it was said.
Hundreds of negroes with hands
held high in the air walked from
the valley under the guard of armed
civilians. They were taken to Con-
vention hall and McNulty park,
where they were interned.
Whites who returned from the
battle-swept valley said that at least
50 negroes, including men, women
and children, were lying dead. At 10
o'clock authorities had been unable
to make a check of the black losses
in this battle.
Most of the blacks who were killed
met death in the early morning
fighting in the negro section near
the Frisco tracks.
___________________________
THE START
The clash had its inception when
several automobiles loaded with
armed negroes and said to have been
led by "Old Man" Stratford, a ne-
gro hotel proprietor, swung up in
front of the courthouse shortly be-
fore 10 o'clock, bent on protecting
Rowland. Not more than 30 blacks
were in the first party but they suc-
ceeded in virtually taking command
of the situation there because few
of the whites were armed and none
displayed guns. The blacks were or-
dered home by Sheriff McCullough,
who it is said, had armed negro
deputies with him on the courthouse
steps. Barney Cleaver, a former negro
police officer, also advised them to
go home. After the first sally, dur-
ing which the blacks dispersed part
of the crowd of whites, the negroes
were still permitted to keep their
guns.
Instead of going home, they cir-
cled around several blocks near the
courthouse and came back with an-
other flourish of shot-guns and
rifles. By this time the crowd of
whites had increased to several
thousand with hundreds of women
and a number of children on the
fringes. Most of the whites wer on-
lookers and there appeared to be
no organized mob. After making
known their intention to protect
Rowland at all costs the blacks were
star[ing?] toward home again. There
was still no move on the part of the
sheriff's forces or the city police to
disarm them although the black
force was not more than 50 at this
time.
Instead of going to the negro sec-
tion to stay the blackss whirled
through the streets of the quarter
and sought recruits. Every negro
they met was solicited to joion their
ranks. At Sixth and Cincinnati two
negroes who refused were threat-
ened, according to residents of the
neighborhood who overheard the
conversation.
Shortly after 10 o'clock the blacks
came back to the courthouse with
their biggest force. Estimates place
the number of armed negroes at be-
tween 100 and 200. By this time
it was estimated that probably 100
of the whites in the crowd had
procured arms. A number of whites
who sought guns at the National
Guard armory were refused. Cour-
iers went through the crowd of
whites and warned women and
children and unarmed men to seek
safety. They said they feared an
assault by the blacks. Only a part
of the crowd complied.
The first clash followed on the
heels of this warning. There are
two versions of how the firing be-
gun. According to some of the spectators
pistols were first fired into the air
in front of the Boulder street en-
trance to the courthouse and this,
spectators say, acted as a signal for
the general firing during which the
blacks fired ten shots to each one
for the whites. The crowd of whites
greatly outnumbered the armed
band of negroes but the whites were
helpless in front of the black on-
slaught because they were in con-
stant danger of firing into other
whites if they attempted to protect
the women and children in the crowd
by answering the blacks fire.
Where First Man Fell
After the first volley one carload
of blacks came north on Boulder
avenue, firing as they raced along.
The first white man dropped be-
fore the crash. He had been stand-
ing against the wall of the garage
on Boulder, just south of Sixth
street.
Across the street men and women
in the crowd sought refuge in the
row of houses on Boulder south of
Sixth. Many of them were unoble
to reach cover before the second
volley so they dropped in their
tracks and clung to the earth.
Others hid behind curbs in the
driveways to the garages of these
homes, running to better cover be-
tween the volleys.
Meanwhile the negroes fled.
Some of them ran through the
crowds of women and children,
brandishing their guns. They had
disappeared from the immediate
area of the courthouse within ten
minutes after the first shot had been fired.
Second Version of Start
The second version of the start
of the firing was to the effect that
a number of unarmed white men,
seeing that the officials were not
willing to disarm the blacks, took
that task to themselves. One man
is reported to have dashed into the ranks of blacks and seized one of the
guns. Spectators who relate this as
the true story of the inception of
the shooting declare that the blacks
immediately opened fire when they
were threatened with disarmament.
Shortly after the negroes fled
from the courthouse battlefield an
automobile load of white youths
sped past and fired into the jail
windows on the fourth floor, spec-
tators declared.
John McQueen, a former county
officer and one of the men who at-
tempted to disperse the crowd at the
courthouse, declared today that
Johnny Cody was the negro whose
shot started the general firing here.
"While I was on the steps Cody
and a band of negroes started up,"
McQueen said. "I went to meet them
and a stranger backed me uo. Cody
pushed a gun against him and fired
just as I pushed the gun away. The
stranger went down. Several bullets
went through my coat."
Immediately after this report came
to the crowd that the blacks were
mobilizing for systematic assault on
the whites. The majority of the
white men were still [illegible]. It
became immediately apparent how-
ever, that the police and sheriff's
force were making no attempt to
prevent the return of the blacks so
the white men themselves took
charge of the situation. Small
groups systematically entered all
downtown hardware stores and
pawnshops and took up all the arms
and ammunition that could be found
Nothing else in any of the stores
were touched.
Black Attack Again.
Soon there were more than 1,000
armed men on the streets. Part of
this crowd defended the Hotel Tulsa
and the section around Second street
and Cincinnati avenue from an attack
of blacks who swarmed back within
three quarters of an hour after the
court house battle.
After this second general battle,
which is described elsewhere, the
whites took rapid command of the
situation. Patrols spread quickly to
cover all the principal streets and
the roads leading into the city.
Special guards were put at all bridges
within a several-mile radius to halt
any incoming blacks. Roving pa-
trols moved up and down Main
street. At Main and Archer streets
desultory firing took place for sev-
eral hours. Blacks from their quar-
ter fired repeatedly from behind the
building at Archer street and Boulder
avenue and Archer and Cincinnati
avenue. They were cleared out with-
in an hour or two, but a second
group took their place and held the
negro block on Cincinnati, at the
Frisco tracks, against assault until
early this morning. Two negroes were
killed here and several others wound-
ed. A number of whites were re-
ported wounded in fighting here.
Could Have Disarmed Blacks.
Fully an hour before the first
shots were fired at the courthouse
citizens stood on the south steps and
pleaded with Police Commissioner
Adkison to call out the National
Guard without delay. The negroes
were just beginning to parade the
streets at that time and they argued
that even a small detachment of or-
ganized and equipped men could dis-
arm them, compel them to return to
their own part of ftown, get the
whites to disperse when this had
been accomplished and so avert im-
pending trouble.
Commissioner Adkison answered:
"We are trying to get them out,"
then turned and told the crowd to
obey E. S. McQueen's advice to go
home while the negroes were patrol-
ling the streets in arms, threatening
death and rapine. The police were
powerless.
An hour after the pitched battle
took place around the courthouse
and northward along Main and Bos-
ton, the Guard got into action.
Guardsmen went immediately to the
police station and began an attempt
to disperse the whites who had
armed themselves and gathered
there in expectation of another at-
tack.

The Charity of Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI
“My dear heart, our tenderness for this child should be stern. We must not forget that we are educating him not for ourselves, but for the nation. The first impressions of childhood are so strong that I am, in truth, frightened when I think that we are bringing up the king.” excerpt from letter of Marie Antoinette to Madame de Tourzel in regards to her son Louis Charles (Louis XVII)
More often, he [Louis Charles] accompanied his mother in her round of charity. When the queen visited the hospitals or the poor, she took her son with her, and was careful that he himself distributed the alms which she left in the garrets. Sometimes they went to the Gobelins; and the president of the district coming on one occasion to compliment her, she said, “Monsieur, you have many destitute; but the moments which we spend in relieving them are very precious to us.” Sometimes she went to the free Maternity Society which she had founded, where she had authorized the Sisters to distribute sixteen hundred livres for food and fuel every month, and twelve hundred for blankets and clothing, without counting the baby outfits which were given to three hundred mothers. At other times she went to the School of Design, also founded by her, to which she sent one day twelve hundred livres saved with great effort, that the rewards might not be diminished nor the dear scholars suffer through her own distress. Again, she placed in the house of Mademoiselle O’Kennedy four daughters of disabled soldiers, ― orphans, for whom, she said, “I made the endowment.”
Royal family at the foundling hospital, 1790
But that which most strongly attracted the dauphin, as if by a mysterious presentiment, was the Foundling Hospital. Marie Antoinette took him there often; and the gratitude of these poor children expressed itself in acclamations, which was most agreeable to him; they shouted often, “Vive le roi!” and not unfrequently, “Vive la reine!” The young prince always left the hospital with reluctance, and all his little savings were devoted to the relief of these little unfortunates.
One day his father came upon him as he was putting some écus into a pretty little box which had been given him by his aunt, Madame Elisabeth. “What, Charles,” he exclaimed with a look of displeasure, “you hoard your money like a miser?” The child blushed, but recovering immediately, replied, “Yes, father, I am miserly; but it is for the foundlings. Ah, if you could see them! They are truly pitiable!” The king bent over his son, and embracing him with an effusion of joy which he seldom experienced now, said to him, “In that case, my child I will help you fill your little box.”

WHG 16 - The Initial Reaping
Alright! We got about 17 characters if I can remember correctly today and I did the math correctly two days ago, which isn’t likely but I can’t be bothered to check. We have more important things to do than addition! Behold: our tributes!
You can tell I was running out of steam for placeholder characters by the end. I did this in a systematically random way that probably backfired a bunch, SO! If you want to swap districts or add a new character to kick out a placeholder, let me know! Also inform me if I have somehow butchered your URL, your character’s name/pronouns, or something else. Given my haphazard organization “skills,” this is entirely likely, so please speak up.
