The night of 22 to 23 August 1791, in Santo Domingo (today Haiti and the Dominican Republic) saw the beginning of the uprising that would play a crucial role in the abolition of the transatlantic slave trade It is against this background that the International Day for the Remembrance of the Slave Trade and its Abolition is commemorated on 23 August each year "This  23  August,  we  honour  the  memory  of  the  men  and  women  who,  in  Saint-Domingue  in  1791,  revolted  and  paved  the  way  for  the  end  of  slavery  and  dehumanization We honour their memory and that of all the other victims of slavery, for whom they stand. (...) To  draw  lessons  from  this  history,  we  must  lay  this  system  bare,  deconstruct  the  rhetorical  and  pseudoscientific  mechanisms  used  to  justify  it;  we  must  refuse  to  accept  any  concession  or  apologia  which  itself  constitutes  a  compromising  of  principles Such  lucidity  is  the  fundamental  requirement  for  the  reconciliation  of  memory and the fight against all present-day forms of enslavement, which continue to affect millions of people, particularly women and children" — Audrey Azoulay, Director General, Message on the occasion of the International Day for Remembrance of the Slave Trade and its Abolition (at Dhirajlal Gandhi College of Technology) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEOhZVwsdOT/?igshid=oi3fkg6kaki4

On August 19, 2010 World Photo Day hosted its first global online gallery. Almost 270 photographers shared their pictures and people from over 100 countries visited the website. This marked the first official, globally reaching World Photo Day.As early as 1839, a selfie was clicked by American Robert Cornelius. Cornelius set his camera up, took the image by removing the lens cap and then running into frame. On the back he wrote “The first light picture ever taken 1839”. The first digital photograph was taken in 1957; almost 20 years before Kodak’s engineer invented the first digital camera. The photo is a digital scan of a shot initially taken on film which depicts Russell Kirsch’s son and has a resolution of 176×176 The first durable colour photograph was taken by Thomas Sutton in 1861 It was a set of three black-and-white photographs taken through red, green and blue filters However, the photographic emulsions then in use were insensitive to the spectrum, so the result was very imperfect and the demonstration was soon forgotten (at Dhirajlal Gandhi College of Technology) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEOgv0qssEv/?igshid=ragmh7khku40

The Proclamation of Indonesian Independence (Indonesian: Proklamasi Kemerdekaan Indonesia, or simply Proklamasi) was read at 10:00 in the morning of Friday, 17 August 1945 The wording and declaration of the proclamation had to balance the interests of conflicting internal Indonesian and Japanese interests at the time The declaration marked the start of the diplomatic and armed resistance of the Indonesian National Revolution, fighting against the forces of the Netherlands & pro-Dutch civilians, until the latter officially acknowledged Indonesia's independence in 1949  In 2005, the Netherlands declared that it had decided to accept de facto 17 August 1945 as Indonesia's independence date, which has been interpreted by Indonesian media as an official acceptance of the independence date However, on 14 September 2011, a Dutch court ruled in the Rawagede massacre case that the Dutch state was responsible because it had the duty to defend its inhabitants, which also indicated that the area was part of the Dutch East Indies, in contradiction of the Indonesian claim of 17 August 1945 as its date of independence  In a 2013 interview the Indonesian historian Sukotjo, among others, asked the Dutch government to formally acknowledge the date of independence as 17 August 1945 Before the statevisit of King Willem-Alexander (and Queen Máxima) of the Netherlands to Indonesia in 2020, a small group represented by Abdul Halik wrote to him with a few other relatives As far as they were concerned, the king was not welcome as long as the Netherlands does not legally recognize the Indonesian independence date, 17 August 1945 "We ask for recognition of that date and for apologies Those who have made mistakes should apologise to those who have suffered." The United Nations recognizes the date of 27 December 1949 The document was signed by Sukarno (who signed his name "Soekarno" using the Van Ophuijsen orthography) & Mohammad Hatta, who were appointed president & vice-president respectively the following day #rotaractpower #rotaract_salem_district #GK (at Dhirajlal Gandhi College of Technology) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEOVFaEMtF4/?igshid=kzea3ks6ync3
