The fact is, Shakespeare was not sectarian; he pleaded nobody's mission, he stated nobody's cause. He has written with a view to be a mirror of things as they are; and shows the office of the true poet and literary man, which is to re-create the soul of man as God has created it, and human society as man has made it.

- George Dawson, Shakespeare and Other Lectures (1888)

A Special Man And His Memories

I’d like to tell you a little bit about a man named George Dawson. George was born in 1898 in a dirt-floor cabin in Marshall, Texas. He was the son of a farmer, and both of his grandparents and great-grandparents were African-American slaves. Though freed at the end of the Civil War, they had to stay on the plantation for ten years to work off their debt to their former master’s store. George’s…

#FashionFriday: when you dress up to match your pet parrot…

"The Duchess of Richmond and Her Pet Parrot, Westminster Abbey, 1875" by John Gerrard Keulemans (1842–1912) in Ornithological Miscellany Vol. 1 by George Dawson Rowley (1822-1878), London, 1876. This plate illustrates the wax figure of Frances Teresa Stewart (1647-1702), dressed in the outfit she wore to Queen Anne's Coronation, and the preserved body of her pet African Grey Parrot (Psittacus erithacus), her companion for some 40 years who also died soon after her passing. They are on display together at Westminster Abbey:

Ahsoka Ep. 6 spoilers with NO context 😂😂

Episode 5 was AMAZING and brought me right back to all those nostalgic Star Wars moments!

THIS episode though! 👏👏

THE. WAY. I. SQUEALED!!! It was very undignified 😂😂 If you're a Star Wars fan and haven't watched watched Ahsoka yet, PLEASE watch it!! (If you're waiting for the entire season to be out.. well I respect that too, I just have no patience 😅)

ALL the easter eggs we're getting from The Clone Wars and Rebels is truly amazing 🥹 and fans everyone are LIVING!! Which.. if you haven't watched The Clone Wars OR Star Wars Rebels yet... I HIGHLY suggest that before this show! You can still watch Ahsoka without seeing the other two shows, BUT I think you'd appreciate Ahsoka more if you did!!

THANK YOU DAVE FILONI FOR BRINGING US ALL THESE AMAZING ADDITIONS TO THE STAR WARS UNIVERSE!! 👏👏👏👏
