Long story short.
I am an idiot that didn't realize that people had to sign up for tumblr in order to view my posts. Therefore, I will be working on moving everything over to a new host site, and will be rebuilding my website from the ground up. I will still use the same URL as before, but with a different website hosting my domain name. Thanks for your patience!
The 1930s Golden Age of Comic Books marked the rise of iconic superheroes like Superman and Batman, shaped by the experiences of Jewish creators. Facing discrimination, Jewish writers and artists found opportunity in the comic book industry. Superman, introduced in Action Comics #1 (1938) by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster—children of Jewish immigrants—became a symbol of justice, with strong parallels to the story of Moses. These Jewish comic book creators used their work to combat anti-Semitism and Nazi propaganda, famously depicting Superman defeating Hitler. Other Jewish creators, such as Jack Kirby and Joe Simon, created Captain America to stand against fascism. These superhero stories captured the dual-identity struggles of Jewish immigrants in America, emphasizing justice, sacrifice, and the fight against evil—key themes in Jewish American history and comic book culture.

On January 15ᵗʰ, 1919, a massive tank holding 2.3 million gallons of molasses had exploded, flooding Boston's north end docks with sticky molasses. Purity Distilling Company had been warned several times that the tank was creaking, leaking molasses, but the company ignored these warnings, until it was too late. Thousands of gallons flowed across Boston’s North End, resulting in several deaths. Rumor has it that on warm days, one can still smell the molasses.

The 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, also known as the "Six Triple Eight," played a pivotal role during WWII, ensuring soldiers received critical mail that boosted morale. Composed of 855 Black women from the Women's Army Corps (WAC), this battalion, led by Major Charity Adams, tackled a massive backlog of undelivered mail in Europe under grueling conditions, including segregation, inadequate facilities, and war zone threats. Their groundbreaking work cleared years of mail in just months, showcasing their efficiency and resilience. Despite facing racism both abroad and at home, their efforts were instrumental in sustaining soldier morale. Post-war, their legacy was overlooked, but recent honors, such as the 2021 Congressional Gold Medal and Tyler Perry’s 2024 Netflix drama starring Kerry Washington, highlight their historic contributions. The Six Triple Eight’s story exemplifies perseverance and the fight for equality, embodying their motto, "No mail, low morale."

It was a balmy summer evening on July 18th, 1969 and Ted Kennedy was driving home from a party with a companion of his, Mary Jo Kopechne. In a tragic turn of events, Ted ended up driving his car off the road and into a pond, where it sank to the bottom of the body of water. He was able to escape, but Mary Jo was stuck in the car. Even with repeated attempts to save her life, he was unable to reach her. Strangely enough, he waited until nearly 10 hours later to report the incident to the police. Long after any potential alcohol would have left his system. The Chappaquiddick Incident led to the death of a young woman whose political future was bright and full of promise and brought an end to any future aspirations that Ted Kennedy had of becoming president.

Ridley Scott directed and released the film Gladiator in 2000, starring Russell Crowe, Connie Nielsen and Joaquin Phoenix, in 2024 the sequel, Gladiator II was released, the fascination behind ancient Rome’s brutal and often lethal fights between men enslaved and forced to battle until they die, or if they are lucky, are given a second chance at life.

In 1971, the head of state in Romania, Nicolae Ceaușescu and his wife, Elena visited Mao Zedong in China and they were met with an incredible sight. Everywhere, Chairman Mao was being worshipped, treated with reverence, pushed to an almost God-like status. For the couple, both born in poverty, the son and daughter of peasants, this was almost too good to be true and they took it to heart. Nicolae wanted so badly to be put on a pedestal, to be glorified by his citizens, and Elena was by his side, whispering in his ear. Telling him that he deserved to be worshipped, to be in the hall of greats. His megalomaniac, narcissistic mind started to believe his own propaganda. Nicolae later became President of Romania and he and his wife spent the next 18 years creating hell on earth for the Romanian people, eventually leading to the genocide of thousands of individuals.

For over a century, we have found ourselves utterly fascinated by the story of the great, Unsinkable Titanic and the tragic demise it met on the Atlantic Ocean. But why, exactly are we so obsessed with this ship? Especially since there have been dozens, if not hundreds of other shipwrecks that have occurred since and before then. Yet, we are drawn again and again to the tragedy of the Titanic.
On April 10th, 1912 the Titanic set for its maiden voyage across the ocean from Southampton, England to New York City, but it didn’t make it there. Instead the ship and over 1,500 passengers met their terrible demise at the hands of a mercilessly frozen sea. Not only has this tragedy caused individuals to seek out its remains at the bottom of the ocean, it has also has made its way into the media, in all sorts of iterations, but there is so much more to this story.
It wasn’t just the carelessness of the crew on deck, or the lack of lifeboats, it was a number of factors that lead to the Unsinkable Titanic, becoming the sinkable Titanic.

Che Guevara is often celebrated as a symbol of rebellion and revolution, infamously known for being Castro’s right-hand man in the Cuban Revolution. While his image adorns countless articles of clothing, few understand the true nature of this infamous guerilla fighter. Despite his iconic status, Guevara's history reveals a troubling pattern of homophobia, racism, and violence, a much darker reality than what appears on the surface.

For those who live in the United States, you most certainly were told of a happy event that happened in the 17th century, where the Pilgrims and the Natives all sat down and had a jolly, old thanksgiving meal together. Interesting idea, but as we grow older and gather more information on just how terrible the Europeans treated the Natives when they came to the Americas, it seems more like this reality is a sugar-coated one that we have built in our heads. The truth is that the unwashed, disease ridden Europeans came to America, took over the lands and proceeded to wipe out hundreds of thousands of Natives in a multitude of ways.
