=====The circus that bought a tiny California town: ‘We’re creating our own Disneyland=====

[https://www.theguardian.com/stage/2024/nov/24/nipton-california-spiegelword-circus by Amanda Ulrich 11/24/24 The Guardian]

Spiegelworld, an entertainment and circus company based in Las Vegas, bought the entire town in 2022 for $2.5m. This isolated plot of land, roughly an hour’s drive from Vegas and the same distance from the nearest grocery store, is now known as Spiegelworld’s “global headquarters” or, more simply, the “circus town”.

===== People were repressed into silence’: the Spanish artist creating a visual memory of fascism’s horrors =====

[https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jun/05/paco-roca-comic-artist-madrid-franco-fascism-exhibition by Sam Jones 5/6/25 The Guardian]

The map of Paco Roca’s mind, a landscape of memory and loss, unfolds across the walls of an exhibition hall in Madrid, inviting visitors to acquaint themselves with the bittersweet geographies that have shaped the work of one of Spain’s best-known graphic

=====157 foot long mural that the U.S. military commissioned=====

Painted by the master painter Jirar Zorthian in 1945, it’s epic in it’s portrayal of the military industrial complex in all it’s insidiousness.

=====How an Oregon battle between human and nature inspired Frank Herbert’s ‘Dune’=====

[https://www.opb.org/article/2021/10/23/florence-oregon-movies-dune-frank-herbert-science-fiction-novels/ By John Notarianni (OPB) Oct. 23, 2021]

Herbert came to Florence in 1957, planning to write an article documenting this battle between man and nature. He was awestruck by the power of the blowing desert sand. As he wrote in a letter, “These waves can be every bit as devastating as a tidal wave in property damage.”

=====‘Give me your tired, your poor’: The story of poet and refugee advocate Emma Lazarus=====

[https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2017/02/01/give-us-your-tired-your-poor-the-story-of-poet-and-refugee-advocate-emma-lazarus/ Washington Post 02/01/17 By Katie Mettler]

What the poet didn’t know at the time — as a woman whose work as a “poetess” had been at times the subject of condescension — was that it would be her words, lyrical and poignant, that decades later came to define the American vision of liberty.

=====The Modoc and The Matah Kagmi=====

Story if a Modoc Indian who encountered Bigfoot or Sasquatch.

=====Phillis Wheatley 1753–1784=====

Wheatley was seized from Senegal/Gambia, West Africa, when she was about seven years old. She was transported to the Boston docks with a shipment of “refugee” slaves, who because of age or physical frailty were unsuited for rigorous labor in the West Indian and Southern colonies, the first ports of call after the Atlantic crossing. In the month of August 1761, “in want of a domestic,” Susanna Wheatley, wife of prominent Boston tailor John Wheatley, purchased “a slender, frail female child ... for a trifle” because the captain of the slave ship believed that the waif was terminally ill, and he wanted to gain at least a small profit before she died. A Wheatley relative later reported that the family surmised the girl—who was “of slender frame and evidently suffering from a change of climate,” nearly naked, with “no other covering than a quantity of dirty carpet about her”—to be “about seven years old ... from the circumstances of shedding her front teeth.”

=====On Celtic Storytelling, From the Bardic to the Mythic=====

July 17, 2020

Celtic storytellers have endured and enjoyed a roguish reputation through the millennia. Their place is rarely the court of the high bards, rather the firesides of taverns and farmhouses. Their task is not to perfectly preserve great, rigid tracts of history for the financial benefit of their lordly patrons, but to spin the gossip of the hedgerows, the magic of fairy, the grief of the village to their attentive and hearth gathered listeners.

====='Cronk rules everything around me': long-lost beverage resurrected after 120 years=====

Odd ads for Dr Cronk’s Compound Sarsaparilla Beer, once wildly popular, went viral on Twitter. Now a Canadian brewer is bringing it back

=====Acclaimed Russian director convicted but not sent to prison=====
