Update: My mother is still in the hospital. She passed out Tuesday night, hitting the kitchen floor so hard, face first, that she knocked a tooth out. With the myriad of tests, all I know is what has been ruled out as the cause. She’s on a liquid diet and, with a straw, is “eating.” Only pain is her mouth and cut lip. Her blood pressure is normal (for her) during the day but spikes at night (top number over 200). Once that’s under control, they will let her come home. They ordered a walker fo...

#garage #declutter #transformation The garage is one of the most underused spaces in the home. It is generally used as a messy storage space where old furniture and broken appliances are left to gather dust, but this is such a wasted opportunity. A garage is essentially an extra room of your house, and you could do absolutely anything with it that you like.

#juneteenth #freedom #blackculture June 19th is Juneteenth, the oldest known celebration commemorating the ending of slavery in the United States. It is also known as African American Independence Day. Dating back to 1865, it was on June 19th that the Union soldiers, led by Major General Gordon Granger, landed at Galveston, Texas with news that the war had ended and that the enslaved were now free.
#juneteenth #police #blackculture The birth and development of the police in the U.S. can be traced to a multitude of historical, legal, and political-economic conditions. The institution of slavery and the control of minorities, however, were two of the more formidable historic features of American society shaping early policing. Slave patrols and Night Watches, which later became modern police departments, were both designed to control the behaviors of minorities.
#juneteenth #church #blackculture The Watch Night service on New Year’s Eve can be traced back to gatherings also known as “Freedom’s Eve.” On Dec. 31, 1862, during the Civil War, free and freed blacks living in the Union States gathered at churches and/or other safe spaces, while thousands of their enslaved black sisters and brothers stood, knelt and prayed on plantations and other slaveholding sites in America — awaiting news that the Emancipation Proclamation actually had become law.
