100 years ago, Rosalind Franklin was born. She was right in the mix with Wilkins, Crick, and Watson. She died before she could be awarded a Nobel.
It all depends on your point of view.

Black Monday. The stock market flash crash of October 1987 in which eight markets around the world crashed by between 20-40% in a single day!


The idea is to mention events that happened on the current date.

401 years ago, slavery was introduced into the English colonies in North America by a Dutch crew selling Africans stolen from a Spanish ship to the English settlers in Virginia.


Didn't know we, the Dutch, were involved in that instance. Not really surprised though I'm afraid.

Happy 173rd birthday Jessie James, infamous outlaw.

You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

Shhhh. Jesse James was reportedly a member of the Knights of the Golden Circle with hopes of someday funding a second war between the states and the return of the Confederacy.

Happy 173rd birthday Jessie James, infamous outlaw.


Narrator:

"He was ashamed of his persiflage, his boasting, his pretensions of courage and ruthlessness; he was sorry about his cold-bloodedness, his dispassion, his inability to express what he now believed was the case- that he truly regretted killing Jesse, that he missed the man as much as anybody and wished his murder hadn't been necessary. Even as he circulated his saloon he knew that the smiles disappeared when he passed by. He received so many menacing letters that he could read them without any reaction except curiosity. He kept to his apartment all day, flipping over playing cards, looking at his destiny in every King and Jack.

Edward O'Kelly came up from Bachelor at one P.M. on the 8th. He had no grand scheme. No strategy. No agreement with higher authorities. Nothing but a vague longing for glory, and a generalized wish for revenge against Robert Ford. Edward O'Kelly would be ordered to serve a life sentence in the Colorado Penitentiary for second degree murder. Over seven thousand signatures would eventually be gathered in a petition asking for O'Kelly's release, and in 1902, Governor James B. Ullman would pardon the man.

There would be no eulogies for Bob, no photographs of his body would be sold in sundries stores, no people would crowd the streets in the rain to see his funeral cortege, no biographies would be written about him, no children named after him, no one would ever pay twenty-five cents to stand in the rooms he grew up in. The shotgun would ignite, and Ella Mae would scream, but Robert Ford would only lay on the floor and look at the ceiling, the light going out of his eyes before he could find the right words."

54 years ago, South African PM and architect of apartheid was assassinated.


Read up on him because of your post. Apparently Verwoerd was originally Dutch. Another example of Dutch historic involvement in institutionalised racism. Surely nothing to be proud of. But thanks for posting anyway, as I didn't know this.
