Demonstration for women’s right to vote in Gothenburg, Sweden in 1918.

During the Age of Liberty (1718–1772), Sweden had conditional women’s suffrage. This right was revoked and reintroduced in various forms over the years until women were granted suffrage at a national level in 1919.

This is a photo of the first Black girl to attend an all white school in the United States—Dorothy Counts—being jeered and taunted by her white, male peers. This photo encompasses a lot of things that I really hate: prejudice, ignorance, racism, sexism, inequality…

I’ve reblogged this photo a few times before but it always needs to be reblogged again.

This picture makes me really sad. I am unbelievably impressed with her bravery.

And how many of those White fucks got collective amnesia about how they behaved back then? Betcha they’d even deny that was them in this pic.

Hit the nail right on the head. These folks became people’s grandparents, parents, etc. They had siblings, they had lives, they didn’t step from a vacuum, they existed in the same world as everyone else does and prolly some then would even say, “I’m not a racist, she’s just not supposed to be here, y’know? Her school is somewhere else.” Every single person in this pic is a racist and a bigot but if you called them that - just like today - it you and not them who is being the problem.
