The original sampler maker was a teenaged girl called Loara she’s the only one known of seven siblings in that family. She was born approximately 1632 and had passed before her father had in 1656 which they know because it was mentioned in his will.

So in the 1630-40s a girl made a sampler, in 1991 a woman had put in years of research before recreating the sampler as Loara had 350 years earlier , and I’m reading about it in 2024.

Embroidery keeps women alive in history, and it’s part of why I love samplers so much.

Here’s a quote from samplers that I think about often:

To @kushandwizdom this is a rather unfair portrayal of Africa as a whole since half of these are literally just South Africa.  So Instead to add to this post and better dispel the myth of Africa as the vast wasteland of poverty most people think, I found a much more mixed collection of pics from various countries.

Agadir, Morocco

Lagos, Nigeria

Cairo, Egypt

Port Louis, Mauritius

Abidjan, Cote d’Ivoire

Algiers, Algeria

Tripoli, Libya

Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

A redneck neighbor once asked my mom (in the 80s) if they had cars in Peru. Sigh.

Theres a Serial Killer on the Loose named Ed Buck: A  Democratic Donor Who’s Targeting Young Gay Black Men

The second gay black man to be found dead inside a Democrat donor, Ed Buck, house in 18 months described him as the ’f***ing devil’ before his death, it has emerged.

Timothy Dean, who died of an apparent “overdose” at the West Hollywood home of Ed Buck in January, had been warning friends for months that he was bad news. DeMarco Majors, who had known Dean for 20 years, claimed to have seen strings of text messages from Buck to Dean trying to get him to go over to his house, which Dean had been ignoring.

“Don’t you go over there,“ Majors recalls 55-year-old Dean telling him in November last year. “I’m not going over there either. Shit, I’m not trying to end up dead.”

Even though Dean had known Ed Buck for years, it wasn’t until 2017 after 26-year-old Gemmel Moore was found dead at Buck’s home that Harris said Dean became afraid of Buck and “didn’t want nothing to do with [him]”

In text conversations with multiple friends in which they discussed Moore’s death, Dean described Buck as a “horrible, horrible man” and “the f***ing devil”

In the end, no charges were filed against Buck after Moore’s death, though the investigation has been reopened since Dean died.
