The American Pride was originally built as a two master schooner working as a commercial fishing vessel for 40 years. A third mast was added in restoration in 1986. Currently she sails as part of the Los Angeles Maritime Institute.

Russell's Store at Northeast Corner of Chestnut and Strawberry Streets, Philadelphia (detail), Joseph Shoemaker Russell, 1818

From the exhibit Unnamed Figures: Black Presence and Absence in the Early American North, on view at the museum at Historic Deerfield:

“Highlighting the casual sharing of space between residents of different races, this work speaks subtly but significantly to Black participation in everyday urban life in Philadelphia.”

Gonna eat my hands from how much tumblr is unaware of Bad Bunny

Bad Bunny been doing it and killing it before harry styles was doing it- he’s been wearing skirts and doing his nails just cause and it even got my older brother who is straight painting his nails cause he realized “yeah who give a fuck I like it” and bad bunny kissing men and women on stage being open about the LGBT+ community and speaking out to about the transphobic stuff that happened in Puerto Rico. Like it’s not bad for people not being unaware of him but it makes me wanna rattle people when I see them praising stuff Harry has done calling him iconic and the first of it all for this movement when people like Bad bunny,Prince,etc been killing it

Bad bunny be upon you

This is also VERY important to note + some people can’t read Spanish

Never forget

Just wanted to add more to this

Bad Bunny did half of the music video for “Yo Perreo Sola” in drag. And I cannot emphasize how much the genre is saturated with machismo bullshit and Bad Bunny just refuses to participate in it.

His video for “Caro” is also a celebration of breaking gender norms. Most of the video is performed by Jazmyne Joy as Bad Bunny.

Like I fully understand if you don’t normally listen to reggaeton or Latino music in general. But I cannot express to you how huge and popular he is. He is the highest streaming artist worldwide right now. He’s largely adored by every young Latino out there. He’s having a great time and doing amazing things.

A day late but Happy Birthday Maine! Maine split off from Massachusetts and became its own state on March 15th, 1820. Here is William King, Maine’s First Governor (portrait by Philip Spooner Harris, ca. 1855, from Gilbert Stuart's 1806 portrait of King)
