French and American soldiers at the altar of St. Joan of Arc Church (Basilique du Bois Chenu) near Domrémy, France. 9/15/1918.
Located on the hillside overlooking the village of Domrémy, the Basilique du Bois Chenu is a national monument expressing the country's gratitude to St Joan of Arc.

Joan of Arc is considered a heroine of France for her role during the Lancastrian phase of the Hundred Years' War.
.@hrcastor has a fantastic book on Joan of Arc if you want to learn more

When the hours spent on research are totally worth it....
(That's why this stage of the process is SO important to me)
I love photographs taken inside cathedrals/churches during the war. The compositions are usually very powerful, especially when you take the whole context into consideration.

Amelia Earhart was declared dead #OnThisDay in 1939.

She was the first female aviator to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean.

(The photo is from The Colour of Time tinyurl.com/y9ddsvzj)
Earhart was the daughter of Samuel "Edwin" Stanton Earhart and Amelia "Amy". She was born in Atchison, Kansas, in the home of her maternal grandfather, Alfred Gideon Otis, who was a former federal judge, the president of the Atchison Savings Bank.
According to family custom, Earhart was named after her two grandmothers, Amelia Josephine Harres and Mary Wells Patton. From an early age, Amelia was the ringleader while her sister Grace Muriel Earhart (1899–1998), two years her junior, acted as the dutiful follower.

It’s interesting to do a mental exercise in which I view my being a transsexual from starkly different perspectives:

1) It’s a choice I made, and I became trans when I made it.

2) My being trans is something innate and not a choice, though acting on that and transitioning is.
I think that by exploring these ideas we might gain a better sense for the difference between TRA vs Feminist logic, and that might help foster understanding of a better way to communicate between the two groups.
So let’s start by exploring #1: I became trans the moment I chose to transition.

This is an objective, materialistic perspective. While the motivations behind why a person might choose to do this are complex and varied, it’s easy to understand that they have, in fact, chosen.

🛑BREAKING🛑

THREAD: Cambridge Analytica (CA) assigned dozens of non-US citizens to provide campaign strategy and messaging advice to ­#Republican candidates in 2014, even as an attorney *warned* CA that this was ILLEGAL‼️1/

washingtonpost.com/politics/forme…
This ILLEGAL effort to embed foreign workers was designed to present Cambridge Analytica, whose parent, SCL Group, was based in London, as “an American brand” to appeal to U.S. political clients.🙄 2/
U.S. election laws CLEARLY say that foreign nationals (w/o a green card) must not “directly or indirectly participate in the decision-making process” of a political campaign, although they can play lesser roles.🤨 3/
