Let #OscarWilde inspire you to #read and #riseup in the face of this national assault. ☺️
Reading old works can reveal the patterns that are repeating to this day, it can help us win against these fraudsters if we look to what others did before us. 🤝🤝🤝 #MLK #MalcolmX #Tubman #TankMan #Mandela #Jesus
American abolitionist and social activist Harriet Tubman is portrayed as an older woman, her face bearing the marks of age and hardship. Her expression is serious, almost somber; her eyes seem to hold a weight of experience, and her mouth is set in a thin, slightly downturned line. Her skin is depicted with a range of muted tones, predominantly dark browns and grays that suggest depth and shadows. She wears a dark-colored garment, possibly a shawl, which appears heavy and enveloping, adding to the overall sense of somberness. Most striking is Tubman's head wrap, a reddish-pink hue that contrasts with the darker tones of her clothing and face. The wrap is tied simply, covering most of her hair. The background is a blend of purple and pinkish hues, which are not uniform but are instead applied with expressive brushstrokes suggesting depth and atmosphere. The purple dominates, lending a cool, almost twilight, feel to the scene. The overall mood of the painting is one of determination or maybe wistful sadness. The muted colors, Tubman's expression, and the loose, expressive brushwork create an atmosphere of introspection and perhaps even loneliness. American artist James DeLoache uses little detail; instead, the focus is on capturing the emotional weight of Tubman's life. Born into a sharecropping family in 1926 in Burlington, North Carolina, DeLoache received artistic training at Howard University and Cooper Union. His time in school made him especially aware of the gaps in mainstream understanding of Black history. His deep interest in correcting this led to a 1963 commission with the NAACP to create a series of large-scale murals entitled "Our New Day Begun" that would eventually be donated to the Amistad Research Center’s Fine Art Collection in New Orleans, Louisiana. These panels visually narrate the struggle of Black Americans for freedom, tracing the journey through centuries of enslavement, the Reconstruction era, and civil rights activism.

Harriet Tubman was real. As ridiculous as it is to claim she wasn’t, it’s insidious. Rarely are historical figures pure good; she was. #tubman
Chief Officer "Petty" Hegseth's dick must be incredibly small. Imagine being such a "victim" and so "offended" by incredible brave Americans who just happen to be either not white, nor straight, that you can't bare to hear their names? #Navy #undergroundrailroad #Tubman #Weak #LittleBitch

I’m glad President Trump showed President Ramaphosa of South Africa that he will care for all race of people. Oh, and just watch,“Farmers not black” will be clipped for the left. Also, mainstream media! Really?! Ugh…. #NBC #CNN #MSNBC #Racism #OfficerTatum #Harriet #Tubman

The National Park Service has reversed recent changes to its Harriet #Tubman and #UndergroundRailroad webpage, restoring content that was previously removed after news coverage and public criticism over edits that excluded references to slavery.

The National Park Service has reversed edits and restored content to its webpage about Harriet #Tubman and the #UndergroundRailroad in the wake of news reports and public backlash over changes excluding references to slavery.
Wasn't the Trump administration removing an image & quote of #HarrietTubman on a website about the #UndergroundRailroad like removing an image of #MLKjr about the modern Civil Rights movement or one of Harvey Milk about the #GayRights movement?

Slavery was not "Black/White cooperation." The Underground Railroad was not made to "bridge the divides of race".
There's a clear & present danger in whitewashing history.
Friends in the Nat Parks are doing their best. Dear God, help them & help all of us. #Tubman #corybooker #altnationalparks
#Trump and #Elon are #racists. The #GOP is #racist. #Republicans who say they only voted for policies are like #traitor #confederates saying they only wanted #statesrights. Anyone who voted for Trump voted racist intentionally. #Tubman @ajpennyfarthing.bsky.social @stephencolbert.bsky.social
Remember, if General Harriet Tubman had not been sick but instead had made it John Brown’s raid on Harper’s Ferry, the raid would most likely have been successful, and we would have freed ourselves!

You can't visit the site where Harriet Tubman's father had his cabin. But you can visit the virtual dig that shows the artifacts Maryland has found there. It's pretty incredible. #harriettubman #Marylandhistory #Tubman #harriet #archaeology #Blackhistory

“Harriet Tubman was, frankly, a badass. She was a young woman with a gun and wasn’t afraid to use it. Once a slave chose to go on the journey with her, she warned them that they must “go on or die” to ensure the safety of other passengers. She never lost a single one.”
