Thomas Edison relaxing on a “Vagabonds” camping trip, 1921.

Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Harvey Firestone, and John Burroughs, calling themselves the Four Vagabonds, embarked on a series of summer camping trips between 1915 and 1924.
The trips were well organized and equipped. There were several heavy passenger cars and vans to carry the travelers, household staff, and equipment.

Ford Motor Company photographers also accompanied the group.

This is the first photo I restored from a series taken by Alberto Henschel in Brazil before the slavery-abolition law.

These will not be sold as prints but I'll make the whole collection available in high-resolution (for free) in case you want to use it for educational purposes.
The original caption only says "Cafuza". Nothing else is known about this woman neither about when or where the photo was taken.
🇧🇷 Essa foto é parte de uma serie tirada pelo fotógrafo Alberto Henschel durante as décadas que antecederam a Lei Áurea. Estou restaurando todas elas.

A série completa estará disponível em alta resolução em breve.

The Nazis arrested an estimated 100,000 homosexual men, 50,000 of whom were imprisoned. The majority of them ended up in concentration camps.

Walter was one of them. Urban Nation and @FacesAuschwitz joined forces and we painted his photo on the wall of a building in Berlin.
@FacesAuschwitz Here's a close-up where you can see the details around the pink triangle.

In Auschwitz, prisoners of German nationality designated by a pink triangle were arrested under Paragraph 175 of the German criminal code as “asocial parasites”.
@FacesAuschwitz Walter Degen, a former locksmith, was deported as a German political prisoner at the age of 32 for being homosexual, and was registered at the Auschwitz concentration camp on 29 August 1941.

We (@FacesAuschwitz) partnered up with Urban Nation and painted Walter's photo on the wall of a building at Bülowstraße in Berlin.

It is still there.
@FacesAuschwitz Close-up:
@FacesAuschwitz This group of people was highly neglected after the war, and many people still don't know how much they were persecuted. Their story is almost invisible.

At least one of their faces, representing all the others, is pretty visible now for all to see.

Henry Ford had some interesting things to say about The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion.
Full video here: bitchute.com/video/DIlJJc8Z…
Fun fact: The Protocols of Zion didn't become an international bestseller until AFTER the eruption of Communist regimes across Europe conspicuously headed by Judaic tyrants.

Hello, it's me, your @HoustonChron housing reporter. This has exactly nothing to do with the lack of public housing space in Houston. So let's talk about what does.
First, some numbers. When @Housing4Houston opened the waitlist briefly back in 2016, almost 69,000 signed up. Not 100,000. We all like facts. That was the first time it opened in *four years.*

There was room for only 30,000

Harris County opened its list in 2016 for the first time in EIGHT years, adding just 5,000 slots. houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-t…

It was investigated...did not happen.

Ford is exposed as a liar:
- Coached friend in beating a polygraph. Claimed in testimony not to have done this. There is corroboration for this LIE through the written testimony under penalty of perjury from a former boyfriend.

...they DELAYED hearing by a week due to this claimed fear of flying...so that #Ford could drive cross country. While this seemed incredible, no one questioned it. In her testimony, she confirmed that SHE FLEW to DC for the hearing, SHE FLEW multiple times in July/August...

#Series ¡Me gustó la música de #Versailles! He terminado las dos primeras temporadas de esta ambiciosa serie de #ficciónhistórica disponible en @NetflixLAT, y ya espero la tercera y última temporada. En este hilo compartiré una apreciación personal del #Score y del #Soundtrack.
En primer lugar va la intro, es tan poderosa, que no usé en ningún episodio la opción de saltar intro o adelantarla. Es un tema compuesto por los franceses @M83 llamado #Outro. Se puede escuchar en @Spotify - @SpotifyColombia :

O si prefieren en @YouTube.

For the past five years I've been using a mnemonic tool in graduate seminars, which walks students through everything we need to know about a book. I call it #THOMAS and it works really well 1/
The T in #THOMAS is Topic: the basics of the who, what, when and where. What the book is about 2/
The H in #THOMAS is Historiography. What debates is this book intervening in? What does it add to/challenge in these conversations? 3/

1/ In the wake Hurricane #Harvey, reporter @neenareports set out to understand how 14,000 homes got built *inside* two Houston reservoirs. revealnews.org/episodes/the-t…
2/ More specifically, why had the Army Corps of Engineers allotted 50 square miles to flood – but only bought 38 square miles?
3/ People live in those other 12 square miles, after all. And about 5,000 of their homes flooded during #Harvey.
