hey guys can you help me find that old portrait of a girl holding a little painting of a naked dude and cracking up about it?? I want to say it’s by Rembrandt but that’s probably not right

[runwildwithme]

It’s “Smiling Girl, a Courtesan, Holding an Obscene Image” by Gerard van Honthorst!!

[charminglyantiquated]

It’s the best painting that exists

The best thing coming out of Black Panther is the renewed calls for the release of jailed Black Panther members who’ve been incarcerated for decades. The FBI’s terrorism unit had labeled them “black identity extremists”, claiming that activists fighting police brutality posed a violent threat.

these people are literally heroes. they organized a breakfast program for poor kids, hosted rent strikes, applied pressure to landlords to do their jobs cleaning up apartments. there’s even one story where two of these guys drove out to a person’s house and brought their baby to the hospital to get a cockroach removed from her ear.

these are heroes who demanded freedom for oppressed peoples and actively worked toward creating a more free world.

and so they were accused of crimes they didn’t commit, thrown in jail, and left to rot where they’d be sure never to feed a hungry kid or refill an abandoned community pool ever again.
