I remember when I was a young chap in Frankston in the early 70s my dad took me to an ALP candidate's packed public meeting at (possibly) the Mornington High auditorium.

There was a Liberal Party heckler in the crowd, and whatever he yelled at the candidate, the candidate gave back twice as good, much to the amusement and gratitude of the rest of the audience. This went on for a long time.

Meanwhile in the United States, one of the "leading" GOP candidates stubbed their toe on 'What caused the Civil War?' and was whining about Democratic plants in the crowd.

Brutal.

(Leading is in quotes, because Trumpy is going to romp home, but the New York Times can't give up its horse-race nonsense. Free link btw.)

When Haley Dodged the Slavery Question, She Put Her Coalition at Risk

Nikki Haley’s avoidance of mentioning slavery as a cause of the conflict, which she walked back on Thursday, threatened to dent her crossover appeal to independents and moderate Democrats.

The population is thought to have plummeted during the 19th and 20th centuries as members retreated deeper into the #rainforest to escape the #rubberboom and the #enslavers who drove it.

By 1959, when #American #missionaries convinced the Iskonawa to settle in a village where they could be #evangelized, there were around 100 left.

A great talk about discovering the slave-holders and the enslaved in your ancestry. I am Southern through and through and have ancestors from every southern state. I have run across many slave-holders in my ancestry and have been struggling with how to mark them and what to do with them. I have also wanted to do something about the genealogy of those enslaved by my ancestors.

@legalgenealogist Wow, thanks for the resource. I have been struggling with how to handle all of my enslaver ancestors (I am thoroughly Southern so lots of different family lines had enslaved people). I have wanted to put some noticeable marker on those folks rather than using a picture or some other non-descript avatar but haven't yet settled on what to do.

#Congress is so broken it can’t even remove artwork that honors #enslavers and #confederates. And shame on Rep. James Clyburn, one of the most senior African-Americans in Congress, for not even responding to a request to comment on this article.

Art in the U.S. Capitol honors 141 enslavers and 13 Confederates

A Washington Post investigation of more than 400 artworks in the U.S. Capitol building found that one-third honor enslavers or Confederates.
