MURDARAH!
The fact that it’s taking place on a gallows indicates that it’s an official execution, and thus not a lynching (which is associated with hanging, but it’s a term for extrajudicial execution regardless of method).
Richardson has been involved in a number of negotiations for release of prisoners and hostages from problematic states over the years, and during the Bush43 administration (significant because Richardson is a Democrat), handled several official and unofficial special-envoy, conflict-resolution sorts of assignments.
“We never looked at it as a Black man before,” Jerrems told the Las Vegas Sun.
One of the biggest issues with the CW is that you really never know when their shows will air. They will run new episodes for several weeks then go on hiatus with several weeks of reruns. Its very hard to build a loyal audience that way.
For almost a solid decade the CW was known for giving every show a second season at minimum because the shows would only turn a profit once the first season was sold to Netflix for streaming and found an audience overseas.
I am a descendent of Ocoee Massacre victims. My father sought reparation for about a decade during the twilight of his life. He died before Florida decided to award us “something”, which ended up being nothing for a while as they took back the money and now it’s some kind of scholarship.
Sherman getting put on a leash when he directly wanted to go after the foundation of the rebellion and hang them all as a lesson is one reason today why the south remains so very fucked up.
I could most definitely be mistaken but I believe Nathan Beford Forrest was more than “a KKK leader” and was in fact “the founding Grand Wizard/Cyclops/Chief Dickhead” of the KKK when it began. And we know why/how the KKK began so I won’t bore you with it- all I’ll say is what I say every time I think of the Civil…
As a long time resident of NYC it never fails to amaze me the people that travel from around this very country just to go shopping at Old Navy.
For me, my Spanish is just terrible, so I can’t sell it. I’m better with Swedish, but my accent there is still pretty shit.
Spot on. Currently reading this article during a little siesta in Madrid, after traveling through Iceland, Sweden, and the Netherlands over the last several weeks. I’m an American tourist abroad, and I’ve noticed the German tourists being completely unaware of social norms, which surprised me because I guess I assumed…
That’s fair, but I also think the nature of your situation was more about the cultural novelty of what they are visiting for. Again, going with my travel agent’s comparison, I wouldn’t surprised if an American kid wearing regular clothes at a bus stop has been photographed shamelessly by Asian tourists here. It’s…
Ah, Paris was fine. I even talked politics with the guide of a bike tour and a taxi driver. Well, that is until my wife said "Mike enough, we're here to see sights, not talk about the next mayor of Paris !" The taxi driver agreed, then started talking about what not to talk about as a foreigner. I loved it.
“The “rudeness” is a difference in cultural norms”
It was French, wasn’t it.
I did the backpack thing through Europe in the 80s. I did the train from top to bottom, Italy. I’m of Italian heritage, as well. The Italians I encountered on the train was an assault on the senses. They were beyond loud, brash, rude and sexually aggressive. I planned on exploring the country, but I felt the need to…
The language thing can be tricky, I’ve occasionally had people scoff and respond with “I speak English” when I tried to greet them in the local tongue.
He may have been a hot mess in his personal affairs, but no Dwyane Wade during Pride Month and Father’s Day?
