125 Years Ago: Newsies Go On Strike
“Ye don’t sell no more World ’r Joinal ’r ye git yer face punched in — see?” [source]
B. West Clinedinst, “The Hottest Strike of Midsummer. The newsboys of New York, who struck against the price charged by some of the one-cent newspapers, attacked the men who took their places and destroyed the boycotted newspapers–Scene on Frankfort Street, near Newspaper Row,” Leslie’s Weekly, Aug. 12, 1899. [source]
On July 18, 1899 the newsies of Long Island City, Queens tipped over a Evening Journal distribution wagon in protest against the continued wartime price of 60 cents per hundred newspapers. The price change had been implemented during the Spanish-American War of the year before to profit off of increased wartime sales. But now that the war was over, the newsies wanted price to be returned to it's prewar 50 cents per hundred. On July 19, three hundred newsies met in City Hall Park and pledged to strike against the New York World and the Evening Journal.
Over the next two weeks, the strike would not only spread to all five boroughs, but to the newsies of a number of cities and towns across the northeast, all refusing to sell the World and the Journal. [source]
The strike would end with a compromise; the World and Journal would keep the price of their papers at 60 cents, but any unsold papers could be bought back. This compromise was accepted on August 2.
The Newsboy's Strike of 1899 would inspire several other child labor strikes in the years to come. [source]
Delivering Newspapers, 1899. [source]

Decades later, Winston Churchill's funeral still touches the British heart and soul. The background music is all the narration you need.

Legend of the Galatic Heroes framed it's lore dump episode as a character watching an in-universe documentary, and I cannot emphasize enough how hard they not only committed to the bit but how funny that bit actually is
#there were historians talking#they animated archive footage#genuinely the funniest way to give this info with a character needing to be weirdly uninformed about the history of the galaxy#legend of the galactic heroes#logh#me rambling

Ada Wong & Leon S. Kennedy: The History [ Resident Evil 4 (2023) ]
#crimson's gifs: resident evil#Resident Evil#RE#Resident Evil 4#RE4#Resident Evil 4 Remake#RE4R#RE4MAKE#Ada Wong#Leon S Kennedy#Leon S. Kennedy#Leon Kennedy#Leon Scott Kennedy#Aeon#AdaLeon#LeonAda#Leon x Ada#Ada Wong x Leon S. Kennedy#Pairing: Keeping Score#im ngl to you please look at all the other Aeon footage ive previously edited in its full on youtube#from the 1998 og to fucking re2 remake and tell me you don't see how out of character their interactions in 4r are#Because I swear to god ive been working with their entire history of footage for this series for the past couple DAYS and its just mental#I ranted about Leon last set but its also Ada whos undergone a crazy fucking out of character streak too#Calling Leon a dog and shit is NOT how shes treated him at ALL in any other instance#Like in the og again shes outwardly caring and concerned for him in SW and the base game. She does NOT talk about him like that#Even in their later interactions like re6 shes still outwardly worried for him#The only piece of media that comes even close to that type of characterisation would probs be Damnation and even then#The whole movie segments with them is just dark flirting while on the job and theyre both in kinda bad moods so in there it makes sense mor#In RE4 its a reuniting after 6 years on BOTH sides. I loved Ada's new seperate ways and the bond she had with Luis but they massacred#How she and Leon treated each other and it makes me mad
