The Earliest Born Person Ever Photographed (http://https://youtu.be/R9DmugEWlLE)
Looking at a photo of a person born during the American Revulution, the Boston Tea party…tricorn hats, white wigs muzzleloading….
I can never understand people that are not fascinated, never in awe.
Poor souls.
Zitkala-Ĺ a (Red Bird) | đź“· Joseph Keiley | 1898
Zitkála-Šá (Lakota for Red Bird; February 22, 1876 – January 26, 1938), also known by her missionary and married names Gertrude Simmons Bonnin, was a Yankton Dakota writer, editor, translator, musician, educator, and political activist. She wrote several works chronicling her struggles with cultural identity, and the pull between the majority culture in which she was educated, and the Dakota culture into which she was born and raised. Her later books were among the first works to bring traditional Native American stories to a widespread white English-speaking readership. Zitkála-Šá has been noted as one of the most influential Native American activists of the 20th century.

The pioneering Scots photographer who captured China | BBC News
Pioneering Scottish photographer John Thomson took some of the earliest pictures of China on record.
He was born in Edinburgh in 1837 and set off for the Far East in 1862 where he spent the next decade capturing images from all walks of life.
In 1866 he became the first person to photograph the now world-famous Angkor Wat religious monument in Cambodia.
Images from his journeys form one of the most extensive records of any region taken in the 19th Century.
