Over the weekend, a majority of the Texas State Republican Executive Committee (SREC) voted to remove language from a resolution affirming support for Israel that would have prohibited party associations with people and groups “known to espouse or tolerate antisemitism, pro-Nazi sympathies or Holocaust denial.” Members of the state party committee—who are elected by party delegates—voted 31-29 to remove that language. About half the committee also tried to block a public record of the vote… Source: Texas GOP Rejects Ban on Association with Nazis and Extremists

Beyond, far beyond the hustle and bustle of everyday life and the setbacks of ordinary life. In a place that is up to you alone and no one else to care for… there lives the luminous flower of gratitude. Water it with affection and it will blossom into soft, fragrant petals of blessings.

The Mahoney family’s sacrifice took place one autumn day in 1838: at the dock in the city of Alexandria, Virginia, hundreds of people were forcibly loaded onto the huge slave ship Katherine Jackson bound for New Orleans, in the Deep South. Men and women of all ages were thus removed from their loved ones to be sold as objects, amid the cries of children torn from their mothers’ arms.
Anny Mahoney saw her sister and two children leave for the distant cotton plantations of Louisiana. For years, she and her husband had faithfully served one of Maryland’s richest men, Charles Calvert, and in return they had been promised that their family would never be torn apart. But then the economic situation changed and their fate was sealed.
In the book The 272: The Families Who Were Enslaved and Sold to Build the American Catholic Church, “New York Times” journalist Rachel L. Swarns also talks about the involvement of the U.S. Catholic Church in that dark age.
Swarns does so by investigating the events of the Mahoney clan and reconstructing the terrible fate of all the two hundred and seventy-two slaves sold to the new masters of Louisiana in 1838 with the aim of financing Georgetown University in Washington with the proceeds. Entire families were uprooted and divided in exchange for $115,000, equivalent to about $4 million in today’s dollars.
The author, an African-American Catholic with other books on slavery to her credit, shows how in 1838 Georgetown University was able to save itself from financial collapse only through the sale of human beings to the landowners of Louisiana, at the time considered the worst exploiters of black slave labor.
This page of notes was taken when we had finally advanced to the point of getting to the irregular verb group where the verb stems change, depending on the verb tense! Cool! I love how the ve…

Ser mulher não é função, viu? Deixem de ser pacificadoras, de ter que se sujeitar a tudo. No final, é vocês quem adoecem; é em vocês que desenvolvem o maior número de doenças ” por tudo aceitar”. Ser mulher não é função, é um privilégio. Por isso, respeite você, os seus sentimentos e parem de achar que são responsáveis pelas coisas ruins que lhes acontecem.
Um excelente domingo a todas!🌻
