Does anyone on here work with race and medicine in the southern US in the early 20th century?
Niche, I know, but I came across something very weird in my late father's stuff that might be of interest.
Feel free to share.

I had a run in with ICE snatching a man out of his car while walking my children to school this morning in NW DC
I asked a neighbor to continue walking my kids to school and I turned back to document and confront the ICE agents.
I am in contact with @dcmigrantmutualaid.org with the full video.
incredible photo that's definitely worth at least 1,000 words from Andrew Harnik of Getty

Having visited the Vegas Atomic museum years ago helped to teach me the magnitude of issue. I hope that cooler heads prevail today and arms control and deterrence can continue, despite recent vocal decisions.

05.11.2025 20:29 β π 11992 π 2043 π¬ 220 π 83thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.
now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of todayβs layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.
todayβs information came out piecemeal, and people should be able to share their own situations on their own time, but I could share this much ^ as it is pretty cut and dry on the facts.
Teen Vogue also no longer has any trans staffers as of today.
I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members.
At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.
Thank you!
03.11.2025 03:37 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Final Thoughts: The Siege of Jadotville depicts a battle between Irish soldiers and mercenaries in the Congo in 1961. As a film, it is well shot, directed, and acted with excellent scenes. As politics, it rights a wrong as the Irish government tried to cover up the battle. Well done. #hatm
03.11.2025 02:43 β π 9 π 3 π¬ 0 π 0Okay - it's crappy that the details in this article were left out at the end. It should have been pointed out that the soldiers up for commendation were ignored and that Quinlan's family upheld not receiving higher honors for him with the continued rejection of the soldiers in his command.
#HATM
Well done.
(It's been so long since I've seen Saving Private Ryan that I forgot that part)
#HATM
Are they making bombs with shrapnel?
#HATM
"If they get close enough for hand and hand we're fucked."
Um, and you're okay until then?
#HATM
(Yes, I was screaming as the helicopter hit the ground!!)
OMG
#HATM
Oh. So the plane showing up behind the plane of the UN Secretary General was...
Woo...
#HATM
"We didn't do that."
Yeah, when something is scaring away the scary people/things...
Something bigger is coming.
Woo!

Hyenas would be easier to fling into water barrels than cows...
Old and well used tactic to force an end to a siege.
#HATM
They found the ammo hut
While the Irish are fighting, they are also realizing that they have been abandoned. Damn...
#HATM
DEFINATELY HELPED!
That "Tomas Wolfe impersonator" was important.
#HATM
Just heard the command!
#HATM
Just shoot the guy in the white suit. That would help them out a lot.
#HATM
How frightening to realize that you're being hung out to dry. He can't tell his troops at the moment that they have been abandoned. That "God bless" was ominous. Keeping a log is excellent. Document everything when dealing with f*ckery.
