Nothing makes me angrier than the “Minimum wage jobs are intended for teenagers, of course adults can’t live off the wages, they should get real jobs.” bullshit. Not only are you pro child labor but you’re pro underpaying children for their labor? Also, there are so many teenagers out there working to survive and pay rent and support themselves and their families and these jobs are fucking brutal. Pay them what they deserve.

MFA Boston returns works by 19th-century enslaved artist David Drake to his heirs

The terms of the restitution of the two ceramic pots have been cast in the mould of Nazi war-loot agreements

TL;DR: A pot made by Dave The Potter, who was an enslaved artisan who was unique for signing his name and putting words and poems on the pots he made, has been returned to his descendants, even though the pot was bought and sold to begin with.

It officially belongs to the family, but will remain stewarded by the MFA for the next two years. This is a really interesting way forward for conflicted items in museums, being that the family owns it but it will remain with the museum. At least for two years.

The pot is obviously a tremendous piece of history, illustrating the class of highly skilled artisan slaves who existed but often get forgotten in the field slave/ house slave narrative that gets pushed. For real there's sooooo much to learn from this pot, I'm glad that it gets some kind of public visibility while the family gets control of it.

Something that I have noticed is I know almost nobody my age that goes to a food pantry. I know people who regularly run out of money for food and in general have to eat an unsuitable diet because that’s what they can afford and they still don’t go to a food bank, im not sure if it’s because they’re embarrassed or maybe if you didn’t grow up going you don’t know much about it but if you’re financially struggling I really recommend it. And look into other options for food assistance too like community fridges and gardens and other programs that can assist you, where I live Salvation Army pays for an allotted amount of grocery delivery for low income people every month, in the summer farmers take excess produce to the library to be taken by anyone who needs it, etc. There are a LOT of resources for free food that you can look into especially if you are literally not eating because of your financial situation

[junglejim4322]

Btw if you have dietary restrictions you can often let them know and in many cases they’ll prioritize certain items for you
