Hey, #NAACP... How y'all manage your politics isn't my business, but - the same reasons - I genuinely don't feel like advertising free lists of local, Black voters to complete strangers is a safest way to attract volunteers. God knows, this feels like it could attract the absolute wrong element. 😬

I genuinely did NOT know any of this about Harrison... Had to go and read up on it. His doctors' response to his ailment was both indicative of the times and hilarious, cause fuck that slave owning prick. 😂

Excerpt from the "Death and funeral" section of William Henry Harrison's Wikipedia page, describing the treatment of pneumonia in 1841:

"Harrison had been physically exhausted by the constant stream of office seekers and a demanding social schedule. He also frequently ignored the cold late-winter weather, often going out without wearing appropriate clothing, perhaps weakening his immune system. After delivering a two-hour inaugural address in the rain on March 4 without a hat or coat, Harrison continued to expose himself to the elements. Three weeks later on March 24, 1841, Harrison took his daily morning walk to local markets, again without a coat or hat. Despite being caught in a sudden rainstorm, he did not change his wet clothes upon returning to the White House. On March 26, Harrison became ill with cold-like symptoms and sent for his doctor, Thomas Miller, though he told the doctor he felt better after having taken medication for "fatigue and mental anxiety". The next day, Saturday, the doctor was called again, and arrived to find Harrison in bed with a "severe chill", after taking another early morning walk. Miller applied mustard plaster to his stomach and gave him a mild laxative, and he felt better that afternoon. At 4:00 a.m. March 28, Harrison developed severe pain in the side and the doctor initiated bloodletting; the procedure was terminated when there was a drop in his pulse rate. Miller also applied heated cups to the president's skin to enhance blood flow. The doctor then gave him castor oil and medicines to induce vomiting, and diagnosed him with pneumonia in the right lung. A team of doctors was called in Monday, March 29, and they confirmed right lower lobe pneumonia. Harrison was then administered laudanum, opium, and camphor, along with wine and brandy."

Description: A pamphlet extolling the benefit of selective sterilization published by the Human Betterment League of North Carolina, 1950. It reads:

"The average feebleminded parent cannot be expected to provide good heredity, a normal home, intelligent care, to say nothing of the many other things needed to bring up children successfully.

Like running a train, teaching school, or handling money, the job of parenthood is too much to expect of feebleminded men and women."

These network types form the building blocks for more complex, decentralized networks, each with its own distinctive strengths and weaknesses.

Figure 1.1 displays the "Three Basic Types of Networks". In this illustration, the three types of network enumerated are chain, star/hub, and all-channel. Chain networks sequentially connect each node of the network like links in a single chain. Star/hub networks utilize a central node that connects many peripheral nodes. All-channel networks connect each node to every other node in the network.

"Roughly 20 officers, 8 black SUVs. Lots of police on the streets during this time. I apologize for so little information, but it was shocking and everyone was slowing down at the time. It was roughly 9 am and I didn't clearly identify any agency patches.

I am not the only one who saw this though, which is equally disappointing. I will do better with documentation next time."
