Charging Thunder poses in Gertrude Käsebier’s New York studio in 1898, with likely Käsebier’s dog. Charging Thunder was from Pine Ridge, and may have been amount the 27 ghost dancers arrested by Lieutenant Governor Miles in 1890 for practicing the dance. They were given the option of a reduced sentence in order to perform for Bill Cody’s touring “Wild West Show.” Charging Thunder toured American and Europe in 1898 and again on the second 1902 tour. He never returned to Pine Ridge. After the 1902 tour he married an American horse trainer, Josephine, and adopted the English name, George Edward Williams. He and Josephine had two daughters, Gladys and Bessie, and settled in the Gorton area of Manchester, England, where he passed in 1919 and is buried in Manchester, England. 📷 Gertrude Käsebier | © Library of Congress

Apparently unpopular opinion: Woke 1.0 was unironically good. Hell, it didn't go nearly far *enough*. I'm sick of moderating everything we say and believe for the benefit of three cishet white landlords in an Ohio diner cosplaying the working class.

The reader enters an extraordinary world of stowaways, false identities, secret codes, cheap firearms, assassinations and conspiracies, as young Asians made their own plans for their future. I read this book a few years ago and it made me cry. Hey you Anarchists what you doing?

Yes, that is Ho Chi Minh on the cover. This big book contains, depending on how one counts, hundreds or even thousands of stories. It traces the ties among Asian revolutionaries and their Euro-American friends and enemies from the beginning of the twentieth century, through the revolutionary hightide of the 1920s, to the illusive return to normality in the 1930s. It tells the stories of roughly two generations of men and women from, primarily, India, the Dutch East Indies, China, and Vietnam who lived largely in exile or in transit from one place to another to support—variously—nationalist, anarchist, socialist, and world revolution. Any book with a global scope necessarily relies on secondary sources, and Harper appears to have read them all. He also makes considerable use of the police reports of the imperialist powers, which were often well informed if generally prone to exaggerate the extent of terrorist conspiracies.

What are we doing? "In an urgent and unprecedented plea, five former chairs of the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada are sounding the alarm about a Carney government proposal that would allow the “wilful extinction” of species across the country." thetyee.ca/News/2026/08...

Proposed amendments to make building ports and pipelines easier could destroy entire species.
