Yesterday's archival cream of the crop. I suspect the Clothing Panoptican specialized in turtlenecks.

#OnThisDay, 25 Oct 1996, the last “Magdalene laundry” in Ireland closes.

In 2013, the Irish government issued a formal state apology to the women forced to work in the homes.

Here's archive film: https://ifiplayer.ie/father-delaney-collection-magdalene-laundry/

And here's more about how the laundries operated: https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/last-days-of-a-laundry-1.89388

The cat did *not* do the stunt with her.

There is no record of African-American women being invited to join the march.

I was thinking of @Forestofglory and a conversation we had a while back about cultural histories of the Tang. It made me remember this lesser known one.

This book is a cultural history of the city of Chang'An through the collected tales of failed examinees, women and foreigners. Also one of the books that sent me on the rabbit hole of foreigners and intercultural marriage in Tang China

The myth of “shared suffering” in Vicksburg turned history into faith—and faith into amnesia---for although the first war ended in 1865; the second one still shapes how Southerners see suffering, loss, freedom, sacrifice—and the redemptive struggle for truth.

 Bronze statue of a Confederate officer General Lloyd Tilghman on horseback, both arms outstretched with a sword in one hand, mouth open as if shouting, the horse rearing slightly behind him. The monument is set outdoors against a backdrop of green trees, evoking a dramatic, heroic pose typical of Lost Cause memorial sculpture.
