Russian money has completely corrupted the British establishment

Hamas launched its deadly attack against Israel on Vladimir Putin’s birthday. “The Hamas terror campaign in Israel is a huge win for Putin,” Bill Browder told me. “Not only has the press completely sidelined his murderous war in Ukraine as they focus on Israel, but now he’s seeing his oil revenue increase which is the main way he’s funding his war.”

I've skipped the first 3 minutes or so of this, to get right to the part that I find amazing. It is a scratchy, early audio recording from 1955, the week of Rosa #Parks' arrest, of King either making a "prophesy", or just exercising the full force of will and his charisma. Whatever the reason, he proceeds to #predict and proclaim exactly what the #CivilRights movement will do over the next decade or so. It kinda reminds me of the story of Joan of Arc, who proclaims at a young age that she will raise an army and liberate France - and then she does.
This 1970 documentary is imo one of the best ever made about #King.

#Skin | Josephine Baker (June 3, 1906, — April 12, 1975)

"Surely the day will come when color means nothing more than the skin tone, when religion is seen uniquely as a way to speak one's soul, when birth places have the weight of a throw of the dice and all men are born free, when understanding breeds love and brotherhood." ~ Josephine Baker, (brainyquote.com)

"During the German occupation of France, Baker worked with the Red Cross and the Résistance, and as a member of the Free French forces she entertained troops in Africa and the Middle East. She was later awarded the Croix de Guerre and the Legion of Honour with the rosette of the Résistance. After the war much of her energy was devoted to Les Milandes, her estate in southwestern France, from which she began in 1950 to adopt babies of all nationalities in the cause of what she defined as “an experiment in brotherhood” and her “rainbow tribe.” She adopted a total of 12 children."

#Quote | Vincent Price (May 27, 1911 - October 25, 1993)

"I was never educated to be an actor. I went to a regular college. It was a great thing for me because I feel that the main thing to get out of college is a thirst for knowledge. College should teach you how to be curious. Most people think that college is the end of education, but it isn't. The ceremony of giving you the diploma is called commencement. And that means you are fit to commence learning because you have learned how to learn."

~ Vincent Price | azquotes.com
