♫ R.E.S.P.E.C.T. ♫
I like to drag this one out of the archives and give it a bit of oxygen every couple of years, for it is a timeless song by the undisputed Queen of Soul! This post is from back in 2018 when I first learned of Ms. Aretha Franklin’s imminent death … she died on August 16th 2018, the day after I first posted this … I had another song planned for tonight, but when I heard that Aretha Franklin is…

Las Vegas Ranch, July 1873
Captioned, “Rancho of Hon. O. D. Gass, Nevada,” this is the oldest known photo in Las Vegas. We're facing east towards the ranch house. Octavius Decatur Gass and Mrs. Gass are beside the house. Beyond Mrs. Gass is a storage building that is considered an original structure of what is now Old Las Vegas Mormon Fort State Historic Park, Las Vegas Blvd N. & Washington Ave.
The photographer is unknown, and the information comes from the recollections of the Gass' eldest daughter Lela Vegas Slaughter; Otis Marston Colorado River Collection, The Huntington Digital Library.
10/26/54, Ontario CA
The original of this photo was taken in July 1873. I was an infant, being born in Pioche Nev. July 2, 1873. The man in the foreground is a farm hand. The girl is a Mormon girl named Martha. The other are my father O. D. Gass and mother, Mary Virginia Simpson Gass. The Indians are Piutes of Vegas. - by Lela Vegas Slaughter.

Do white Americans owe reperations to blacks? NO!
In America, Reparations have already been paid. To the point that it’s beyond ridiculous. Whites have gone out of their way to artificially boost Nonwhites at every turn. Trillions of tax dollars and donations have been spent over decades trying to boost non-white achievements and social status. Also dept relief, Crt, affirmative action, first step act, donations for past wrong doings, school degrees, food stamps, welfare programs, etc.
Alot of whites and some jews through out American history tried to help blacks become a separate & self-reliant people (the pursuit of Booker T. Washington) through education.
The Freedman's Bureau (1865 to 1872) :
The Freedman’s Bureau (officially known as ‘The Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen, and Abandoned Lands’) was created by Americans to feed and provide other life necessities to the Negro population of the South after the Civil War ended in 1865. However, well before the end of the Civil War, Americans organized all over the North various organizations to feed, clothe, educate and provide other needed necessities for the newly freed Negro people Note: according to W.E.B Du Bios, more than 50 organizations were active in relief capacity for the southern Negro by 1866.
"The First white people in America, certainly the first in the South to exhibit their interest in the reaching of the Negro and saving his soul through the medium of the Sunday-school were Robert E. Lee and 'Stonewall Jackson'. ...Where Robert E. Lee and 'Stonewall' Jackson have led in the redemption of the Negro through the Sunday-school, the rest of us can afford to follow. " - Booker T. Washington 1910
The Tuskegee Institute:
This icon of Black education was founded by the great Booker T Washington and was also the brainchild of an Alabama prominent banker by the name of George W. Campbell (White man). Another White man, an Alabama state senator named W.F. Foster, spearheaded the necessary funding for the Institute through the state legislature. The result was a yearly appropriation of $2000.
The following white Americans, all self-made millionaires, gave small fortunes - their own hard earned money - to this Negro self-sufficiency school over their lifetime:
--Andrew Carnegie
--John D. Rockefeller
--Henry Rodgers
--Collis Huntington
And,
--Julius Rosenwald*
--Anna T. Jeanes*
* Julius Rosenwald was an immigrant Jew and self-made millionaire.
* Anna T. Jeanes, a white woman, was not a self-made millionaire, but inherited her money from her husband.
Howard University
Howard University was chartered in 1867. It was championed by an American Civil War General, Oliver Otis Howard (November 8, 1830 – October 26, 1909), and the school hence bears his name. Howard University is also the ONLY higher education school ever to be directly funded by the US taxpayers (it still is).
Lincoln University
Lincoln University (Pennsylvania) was an exclusive college for Negroes and was created in 1854 by a white man named John Miller Dickey, who also became its first president. Lincoln University was originally named Ashmun Institute. The first Black president of the university was not elected until 1945.
Fisk University
Fisk University was an all-Negro college that was established by three whites, Erastus Milo Cravath, John Ogden and Edward Parmelee Smith in Nashville, Tennessee, in 1866.
Wilberforce University
Wilberforce University, located near Xenia, in Ohio, was an all-Negro college created by whites from the Methodist Episcopal Church in 1856. It was named after a white man, William Wilberforce, who was an 18th century abolitionist.
Cheyney University of Pennsylvania
Cheyney University of Pennsylvania was an all-Negro school established in 1837. A white man named Richard Humphreys had bequeathed $10,000 in his will (10% of his estate) in 1832 for the sole purpose of creating a place of education for the Negro race.
Atlanta University
Atlanta University was founded by whites associated with the American Missionary Association, in 1865. Around 1866, its survival then shifted to, and depended upon, the Americans associated with the Freedman’s Bureau.
In 1922, the Carnegie Corporation and the Rockefeller Memorial gave $25,000 each to create the Journal Of Negro History.
In 1924, George Eastman (Kodack Co.) gave Tuskegee Institute $1 million dollars.
John D. Rockefeller
Mr. Rockefeller donated almost $180 million dollars to the General Education Board, which was chartered by Act of Congress in 1903. Much of this money was spent supplying educational aid to the Negro people, specifically in the southern states (Mr. Rockefeller‘s $180 million translates to almost 2 billion dollars in today's dollars!)
George Peabody Education Fund for poor Southerners
George Peabody Education Fund was established by a white man named George Peabody, and was designed to help Negro colleges in the South at the turn of the century.
The Slater Fund
The Slater Fund was established by white, James Fox Slater, in 1882. Its primary purpose was to support southern Negro schools. Around 1915, this fund was worth about $1.75 million.
The Jeanes Fund (Jeanes Foundation)
A white woman named Miss Anna T. Jeanes, a Quaker, created 'The Fund for Rudimentary Schools for Southern Negroes’ in 1907 from the monies left to her by her late husband. The purpose of the fund was to help Negroes create teachers for their people. It was endowed at one million dollars (a staggering sum at the time).
The Southern Education Board: In or around 1900, whites created the The Southern Education Board. It's funding was initially provided by the Slater Fund and the Jeans Funds. Americans, trained in the area of farming, would go to rural farms (Negro and American) and educate them on better farming techniques. The Southern Education Board was also very concerned with the high southern Negro illiteracy, which was, in 1900, almost 50% (for southern Americans, around 11%).
Phelps-Stokes Fund
Established in 1911, a white philanthropist and self-made millionaire Anson Phelps Stokes created this fund for the purpose of improving Negro life through education. Its endowment was approximately $900,000.
Minor Fund
This fund was established by a white female, Miss Myrtilla Minor, in 1851. Its purpose was to provide aid to schools who would teach Negro girls to be teachers for their people.
In 1910, according to the US census, 50% of Negroes (about 4.8 million) lived in urban centers (all created by white males). That means there would be approximately 2.4 million Negro males living in the urban centers of America. About 1/3rd would be too young to work, so that means there were about 1.6 million Negro males of working age living in American-built cities in 1910. Of those 1.8 million Negro males, 350,000 (almost 20%!) worked in a factory job (all factory jobs for the Negro were supplied by White men i.e. not ONE factory job in America was created by a Negro male --so, concomitantly, no white man was employed by a Negro male in a factory job. Note: At this time in American history, you worked or you starved. (source: Chronological History of The Negro pg. 358)
Naturally, with whites, being so generous supplying jobs to black men, naturally, more black men were encouraged to come to the American-built urban areas.
Julius Rosenwald
Without question one of the most generous of the Euro race toward the black people was Julius Rosenwald (Jewish). Most of his charity was gifted through the Rosenwald Fund (depleted in 1948)
Cushing Fund
A white woman, Miss Emeline Cushing, established this fund in 1895 for the purpose of financially assisting colored schools.
Whites Create Special School - In Mississippi. - For Negro Boys To Own Land
Daniel Hand Fund
A white self-made millionaire, Daniel Hand, established the Daniel Hand Fund in 1888. It was endowed at $1 million dollars (two-thirds of Mr. Hand’s entire personal wealth!). Mr. Hand stipulated that all of the Fund would be directed toward Negro education in the former slave states. When Mr. Hand died in 1893, he bequeathed the rest of his remaining wealth to this fund.
Andrew Carnegie
Mr. Carnegie, when he retired, was considered the richest man in the world. He also became the biggest philanthropist in America and gave generously to Negro educational causes, which included giving $600,000 to the Tuskegee Institute in 1903.
Harmon Foundation
The New York City Harmon Foundation was established in 1922 by an white man named William Harmon (1862-1928). Its purpose was to aid and assist Negro art, artists, businesses, education for Negroes, farming needs, music, and other causes for the Negro.
Garland Fund
This White-male-established fund was used to help the NAACP through the Great Depression.
John D. Rockefeller Jr.
Mr. Rockefeller, Jr. built the Dunbar Apartments in New York City, a mammoth complex consisting of six buildings - 511 apartments - specifically to house low-income Negroes in Harlem. He also built and funded a bank in NYC solely for Negroes.
Katharine Drexel
Katherine Drexel was born November 26, 1858 and died March 3, 1955. She was an American female, a nun, philanthropist, educator and later canonized as a Roman Catholic saint.
"She became a nun, and took the name Sister Katharine, dedicating herself and her inheritance to the needs of [non-occupational ranking] Native Americans and African-Americans in the western and southwestern United States, and was a vocal advocate of racial tolerance. She established a religious order, the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament for Indians and Colored People. She also financed more than 60 missions and schools around the United States, and founded Xavier University of Louisiana[1] - the only historically Black, Roman Catholic university in the United States to date."
The United Negro College Fund
In 1944 the United Negro College Fund was created. Almost all of the funding for its initial operation was provided by the General Education Fund and the Rosenwald Fund.
Mr. William Trent, a black man, in the course of his 20-year tenure as its first executive director, raised over $78 million for this fund, almost all of it coming from generous white liberal Americans (Senator John F. Kennedy gave all of the profits from his book ‘Profiles in Courage' to this fund).
Also American Jews also gave money to black people. Before 1950, it was mostly coming from the Rosenwald fund.
Minority scholarships:
Low income:
It’s open to illegal immigrants, too, but white people? Forget it. And when we learn that “800 Compton residents to get guaranteed income in two-year pilot program,” since Compton is only 2 percent white – yes, just 2 percent – white people won’t get that money.
Having to change the requirements of mental retardation, because too many blacks IQ's were that low.

♫ It's Just A Matter Of Time ♫
I think I’ll take you way back in the time machine today. The year is 1959, a time when pop and rock songs were simpler, with everyman lyrics and great melodies to say what needed to be said and nothing more, often in less than three minutes. Brook Benton was just coming into his own, bringing his smooth voice to the Mercury Records label. From American Songwriter … Written by Benton, Clyde…

Portraits of Thomas Jefferson, Sorted generally in order of my preference.
Edgehill Portrait by Gilbert Stuart
I quite like Gilbert Stuart's portraits, as a general rule. He did iconic portraits of Washington, Madison, Jay, Adamses, and Monroe https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilbert_Stuart. I think I like that they seem more 'republican' (small r) than aristocratic, with their muted colors and generally conservative dress (except for military officers who were painted in uniform).
In the version of the painting with a brown background from 1821, Jefferson's eyes are vibrant and captivating. The Edgehill portrait (blue background) was a family favorite and is generally agreed to be a good likeness.
John Trumbull, 1788 (depicting Jefferson as he looked in 1776, as part of the process of creating his Declaration of Independence painting). My preference is generally for portraits of the younger Jefferson, with the red hair, more brightly colored clothes, and generally more youthful and slender appearance.
Charles Wilson Peale, 1791-1792
I like this portrait of a slightly younger Jefferson, featuring not-yet-totally gray hair. Love the upturned collar as well.
John Trumbull, 1788. This Jefferson is much more European than the Trumbull's other depiction.
Medallion Portrait by Gilbert Stuart
Similar to a Ceracchi bust, which was lost in a fire at the Library of Congress, this work portrays Jefferson in a style reminiscent of Rome. The fact that he and his family liked both 'Roman' versions may be because they appreciated the connection to Rome, or because, as they claimed, the likenesses were very good. Jefferson looks strong and muscular in this image.
Official Presidential Portrait by Rembrandt Peale, 1800
This is a very common image of Jefferson, but I don't have very strong positive or negative feelings about it. It's certainly very familiar. I feel like he is looking directly at me, and generally I don't feel very good about that (for example when I was reading The Art of Power and had to flip the book over every time I put it down because I couldn't take Jefferson staring at me).
Aquatint by Michel Sokolnicki (1760-1816), engraver, after Thaddeus Kosciuszko (1746-1817)
I was really hoping to like the Kosciuszko drawing, because wouldn't it be charming to have a portrait done by his friend. And I heard it was bad, but I was hoping it was bad in a likeable sort of way. But no, it's not charming; Jefferson looks rather angry and unlikeable. At least it got this quote from William Thornton:
"[W]hen I saw it, I did not wonder that he lost Poland—not that it is necessary a Genl should be a Painter, but he should be a man of such Sense as to discover that he is not a Painter."
Pasted from <https://www.monticello.org/research-education/thomas-jefferson-encyclopedia/jefferson-engraving-sokolnicki-engraving/>
Rembrandt Peale, 1805
I've never really been fond of this portrait. Probably because of the coat. I suppose it doesn't mesh well with the image in my head of a lithe, slender Jefferson. I'd rather see whatever red/orange coat he's wearing underneath.
Thomas Sully, 1821 (Copy by George Catlin). Jefferson wasn't captured in many full-length portraits; part of me wishes we had more. His head looks like it has been chopped off at the top, and he is hidden under many layers of clothing (and still wearing that hideous fur coat, or at least a similar one).
Mather Brown, 1786
Generally agreed to be a bad likeness of Jefferson, and depicting him of an irregularly European character. However, at least the painting is pleasant to look at.
By Charles Peale Polk, 1799-1820. It looks like the artist was working from one of Charles Wilson Peale's paintings, butchered Jefferson's hair, and dressed him in the outfit from Rembrandt Peale's presidential portrait.
Engraving by John B. Neagle, 4 Nov 1796 - 17 Sep 1865
Copy after Bass Otis, 1784 - 1861
Jefferson looks pained in this portrait (done in 1816). His hair looks almost feminine and his face seems distorted. William Thornton described it as an "injustice".
Pasted from <https://npg.si.edu/object/npg_NPG.82.207>
