Top Jewelry Looks from the Women at the 2024 Emmy Awards: Stunning Red Carpet Moments

The 2024 Emmy Awards are back, and so are the top jewelry looks! After last year’s SAG strike reshuffle, we’re finally seeing the stars step out this fall, and they did not hold back.  Bulgari Serpenti necklaces slithered across the red carpet on everyone from Saoirse Ronan to Maya Rudolph and Da’Vine Joy Randolph. Of course, diamonds kept things timeless, but it was the bold pops of color—think…

Dear President Biden,

We come together as artists and advocates, but most importantly as human beings witnessing the devastating loss of lives and unfolding horrors in Israel and Palestine.

We ask that, as President of the United States, you call for an immediate de-escalation and ceasefire in Gaza and Israel before another life is lost. More than 5,000 people have been killed in the last week and a half – a number any person of conscience knows is catastrophic. We believe all life is sacred, no matter faith or ethnicity and we condemn the killing of Palestinian and Israeli civilians.

We urge your administration, and all world leaders, to honor all of the lives in the Holy Land and call for and facilitate a ceasefire without delay – an end to the bombing of Gaza, and the safe release of hostages. Half of Gaza’s two million residents are children, and more than two thirds are refugees and their descendants being forced to flee their homes. Humanitarian aid must be allowed to reach them.

We believe that the United States can play a vital diplomatic role in ending the suffering and we are adding our voices to those from the US Congress, UNICEF, Doctors without Borders, The International Committee of The Red Cross, and so many others. Saving lives is a moral imperative. To echo UNICEF, “Compassion — and international law — must prevail.”

As of this writing more than 6,000 bombs have been dropped on Gaza in the last 12 days — resulting in one child being killed every 15 minutes.

“Children and families in Gaza have practically run out of food, water, electricity, medicine and safe access to hospitals, following days of air strikes and cuts to all supply routes. Gaza’s sole power plant ran out of fuel Wednesday afternoon, shutting down electricity, water and wastewater treatment. Most residents can no longer get drinking water from service providers or household water through pipelines…. The humanitarian situation has reached lethal lows, and yet all reports point to further attacks. Compassion — and international law — must prevail.” – UNICEF spokesperson, James Elder

Beyond our pain and mourning for all of the people there and their loved ones around the world we are motivated by an unbending will to stand for our common humanity. We stand for freedom, justice, dignity and peace for all people – and a deep desire to stop more bloodshed.

We refuse to tell future generations the story of our silence, that we stood by and did nothing. As Emergency Relief Chief Martin Griffiths told UN News, “History is watching.”

Yaa Asantewaa was an influential Ashanti queen at the beginning of the twentieth century who remains a powerful symbol today. She was a skilled farmer before ascending to the title Queen Mother in the 1880s.

As the Queen Mother, Asantewaa held many responsibilities, including being the Gatekeeper of the Golden Stool. The Golden Stool is an emblem of the Ashanti kingdom, cultural system, and power.

In 1896, the Ashanti peoples began to rebel against the British presence in their lands and the British attempt to construct the “Gold Coast” colony. To retaliate, the British captured and exiled Asantehene Prempeh I, King of the Ashanti, and Asantewaa’s grandson Kofi Tene, who was also a powerful leader. The British removed the king and other Ashanti leaders to the Seychelles Islands in an effort to acquire the Golden Stool.

While remaining leaders within the community debated on how to best respond to the British threat, Asantewaa held her ground and rallied the troops. Her leadership and passion led to her role as Commander in Chief of the Ashanti army. In turn, the Anglo-Ashanti wars’ fifth and final war against the British became known as the Yaa Asantewaa War of Independence (or the War of the Golden Stool), which began on March 28, 1900.

That conflict began when British representative Sr. Frederick Mitchell Hodgson sat on the Golden Stool. Since the Stool was not a throne, when Hodgson’s act became known, Yaa Asantewaa led the rebellion.

To inspire the leaders of her community, Asantewaa proclaimed that if the men of the kingdom would not defend the people, then the women would rise to the challenge. This both invigorated the men and challenged traditional gender roles. She led the rebellion and became an image of strength and resistance. Unfortunately, she was captured during the rebellion and exiled to Seychelles, where she died in 1921.

Yaa Asantewaa remains a powerful reminder due to her impactful actions in both empowering her people and in tactics against the British army. In August 2000, to commemorate her influence, a museum was opened in her honor in the Ejisu-Juaben District of Ghana. Similarly, there is an achievement award titled the “Nana Yaa Asantewaa Awards” (NYA) which honors women who uphold the values and leadership of Asantewaa.

•••

Yaa Asantewaa fue una influyente reina Ashanti a principios del siglo XX que sigue siendo un símbolo poderoso en la actualidad. Fue una granjera muy hábil antes de ascender al título de Reina Madre en la década de 1880.

Como Reina Madre, Asantewaa tenía muchas responsabilidades, incluida la de guardiana del Banquillo Dorado. El Banquillo Dorado es un emblema del reino, de el sistema cultural y el poder de los Ashanti.

En 1896, el pueblo Ashanti comenzó a rebelarse contra la presencia británica en sus tierras y contra el intento de los británicos de construir la colonia “Costa Dorada”. Para contraatacar, los británicos capturaron y exiliaron a Asantehene Prempeh I, rey de los Ashanti, y al nieto de Asantewaa, Kofi Tene, que también era un líder poderoso. Los británicos trasladaron al rey y a otros líderes Ashanti a las Islas Seychelles en un esfuerzo por adquirir el Banquillo Dorado.

Mientras que los líderes restantes dentro de la comunidad debatían sobre cómo responder a la amenaza británica, Asantewaa se mantuvo firme y reunió a las tropas. Su liderazgo y pasión la llevaron a ocupar el puesto de comandante en jefe del ejército Ashanti. A la vez, la quinta y última guerra de las guerras anglo-ashanti contra los británicos se conoció como la Guerra de Independencia Yaa Asantewaa (o la Guerra del Banquillo Dorado), la cual comenzó el 28 de marzo de 1900.

El conflicto comenzó cuando el representante británico, Frederick Mitchell Hodgson, se sentó en el Banquillo Dorado. Dado que el Banquillo no era un trono, cuando se conoció este acto de Hodgson, Yaa Asantewaa lideró la rebelión.

Para inspirar a los líderes de su comunidad, Asantewaa declaró que si los hombres del reino no defendían al pueblo, las mujeres estarían a la altura de enfrentarse a este desafío. Esto fortaleció a los hombres y desafió los roles de género tradicionales. Ella lideró la rebelión y se convirtió en una imagen de fuerza y ​​resistencia. Desafortunadamente, fue capturada durante la rebelión y exiliada a Seychelles, donde murió en 1921.

Yaa Asantewaa sigue siendo un poderoso recordatorio debido a sus impactantes acciones tanto para empoderar a su pueblo como también por las tácticas contra el ejército británico. En agosto del 2000, para conmemorar su influencia, se abrió un museo en su honor en el distrito de Ejisu-Juaben en Ghana. También existe un premio titulado “Premios Nana Yaa Asantewaa” que honra a las mujeres que defienden los valores y el liderazgo, tal y como lo hizo Asantewaa.

so you’re telling me gregory eddie hates physical touch, has strict routines and traditions, struggles picking up social cues, is blunt and honest, and is a picky eater?? someone get me on the phone to personally thank quinta brunson for this autistic king <3

[jollmaster]

Who are the fathers to Stella's Daughters? We know Stolas is Octavia's but what about the other seven?

men and males :D

if seriously, her daughters have different fathers, as a rule demons of second generation, sometimes with Eden blood (Stella never was married, she has children just because she can and because she wanted)

there's a rumor that Quinta and Sexta's fathers were mortal humans, late medieval kings, but only Stella knows clearly

[genericpuff]

This anon is Portuguese :D

So there's a few tidbits that I really enjoy:

- In Portuguese, there's a word that inspires a big part of our culture (music, literature, paintings, you name it), which is saudade. It describes the feeling of longing for something that is gone, may it be temporarily or permanently.

- We have quite a few legends in the country but my favorite is about the death of Inês de Castro. For context: one of our Kings, D. Pedro I, fell in love with his arranged wife's aid, Inês de Castro. But since Inês has ties to the neighboring kingdom, Pedro's father feared a loss of independence and had her assassinated in the Quinta das Lágrimas.

Now the legend is about the consequences of the assassination: D. Pedro went mad in his grief, battled his own father and hunted after the assassins. He only caught 2 of them and proceeded to execute them by ripping their hearts out, one through the front and the other through the back. He also declared Inês queen and had her corpse be sat on the throne and her hand kissed by the court. There's even records of this, if I recall correctly.

- We have a genre of music called the Fado, very celebrated in Portugal. Unfortunately it's not as popular anymore but it's still a iconic part of our culture here. I don't personally know much about it though but I do encourage looking into it, if anyone wants to listen to a few of those songs :]

- We have had plenty of amazing writers: poets like Fernando Pessoa, novelists like José Saramago, all pretty influential in Portuguese culture but none as important as Luís de Camões (Portugal Day is even on the day he supposedly died). This man was a poet and one of his works, The Lusiads, is pretty much THE Portuguese piece of literature. It's considered an epic, which has over 1k stanzas total and is a hero-ified tale of the first travels to India that passed below South Africa, back in the 15th century.

Aaahhh these are all wonderful! I wanna read more about Inês now ( ; ω ; ) (and I'm def gonna hunt down The Lusiads and read up on it!!) Thank you for sharing!!! <3
