Did you know that Hattie McDaniel was the first African American woman to ever be nominated for an Academy award?
She was not even allowed to attend her own movie’s premiere. The movie, in case you are unfamiliar, was 1939’s Gone with the Wind.
Her career began with radio in which she played a maid who went by “Hi-Hat Hattie.” The radio serial was called “The Optimistic Do-nut Hour.” She was paid so little for her role (especially in proportion to her white counterparts) that she had to work as a real maid off to the side in order to make enough money to live.
She also got criticism from different groups such as the NAACP, who felt she, like other black actors at the time, were only perpetuating stereotypes of African Americans. She decidedly kept working as she did saying, “I’d rather play a maid for $700 a week than be one for $7.”(via blackfeminist)

Kohei Yoshiyuki | The Park
Japanese peeping toms from an exhibition of black-and-white photographs from the ’70s.“The couples were not aware of the voyeurs in most cases. The voyeurs try to look at the couple from a distance in the beginning, then slowly approach toward the couple behind the bushes, and from the blind spots of the couple they try to come as close as possible, and finally peep from a very close distance. But sometimes there are the voyeurs who try to touch the woman, and gradually escalating — then trouble would happen.”

First Circuit Affirms Right to Record the Police || Cato @ Liberty
A panel of the First Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the right of citizens to openly record police officers.
Gathering information about government officials in a form that can readily be disseminated to others serves a cardinal First Amendment interest in protecting and promoting “the free discussion of governmental affairs.” Moreover, as the Court has noted, “[f]reedom of expression has particular significance with respect to government because ‘[i]t is here that the state has a special incentive to repress opposition and often wields a more effective power of suppression.’” This is particularly true of law enforcement officials, who are granted substantial discretion that may be misused to deprive individuals of their liberties. Ensuring the public’s right to gather information about their officials not only aids in the uncovering of abuses, but also may have a salutary effect on the functioning of government more generally.

“Oh no he isn’t!”
Hes human like me and you and we need to appreciate that.
People of America: unite! Restore your reputation of a western democratic nation, and stop your decline as the laughing stock of the world.
Be humble in the face of our allies and forget your enemies.
Look to strive in protecting your own country and people by taking care of them, mentally and physically.
Don’t seek to solve the worlds problem without sorting out your own first.
Finally, respect your elected leader as he ain’t as bad as your previous leader and dissention and lack of respect within ranks shows an inbility to be a unit and maintain unity which proves to others that your not a great nation, a nation to be respected not to be laughed at.
I’m sure the president would agree with me when I say he is a representative of all people and ethnicities and will not become secular just because he van relate to one group beter than the other. The president loves and respects you all as one and you must show him that same respect to becone a better nation.Sincerely,
A British gal.
