This is part a large set which I shot at the protest yesterday outside the Iraq War Inquiry headed by Sir John Chilcot, where ex-prime minister Tony Blair was recalled to re-examine his original evidence in the light of new revelations which conflict with what Blair stated at his first interrogation in 2010.
Though not as large in numbers this time, the protestors were enthusiastic and high-spirited, and several photo-friendly stunts took place along side impassioned speeches to the crowd by Andrew Murray from stopwar.org.uk, Jeremy Corbyn MP who is a leading light in the cross-parliamentary anti-war group, veteran peace campaigner and chair of the Campaign For Nuclear Disarmament Bruce Kent, and others including Peter Brierley whose son Shaun (Sean?) was killed in Iraq fighting Blair's illegal war.

MARRIED MAN'S FATE
BODY FOUND IN HARBOUR
"There is no evidence of the cause of death or how deceased came to be in the harbour," said Mr Wyvern Wilson, S.M., coroner, at the conclusion of an inquest yesterday concerning the death of Edward Cravener Whaley, aged 51. of Clarence Street, Ponsonby. Deceased had been missing from his home since July 1 and his body was recovered from the harbour, near the Northcote Wharf, on July 24.
Evidence was given that deceased was of sober habits, and his demeanour was normal prior to his disappearance. War disabilities appeared to be his principal worry. Florence May Whaley, widow of deceased, stated that she was not aware that her husband was in financial difficulties, but she had since learned that he had raised a mortgage on his property. He had never threatened suicide.
The coroner returned a verdict that deceased died on or about July 1, and that his body was found in the harbour on July 24.

o-magine: medievalpoc: aseantoo submitted to medievalpoc: Unknown artist, possibly of the Brazilian School Black Artist Completing a Portrait of a White Female Aristocrat Brazil (early 1700s) Oil on canvas Philadelphia private collection [x], [x] I was thrilled at first to see this image - a pre-modern Black woman artist, portrayed at work! But then I saw this: Although this black artist appears to be wearing a dress, it is likely to be a male figure. As the scholar Sheldon Cheek explains, the artist wears an earring and a silver collar, both common articles worn by black male servants/slaves in Europe during the 17th and 18th centuries, the collar traditionally indicating slave status. Women rarely, if ever, wore the silver collar. The artist also appears to be wearing a silver “shackle” on the arm. Ugh. Pretty awful. I think we should all be pretty critical of what’s written about this painting. Especially the part you’ve quoted above about how they have assigned the gender of the artist in the painting. I find it bizarre that something that is supposed to indicate enslaved status (not gender) somehow trumps this person wearing women’s clothing (that’s also a woman’s hat to the best of my knowledge). The Americas, including Brazil, have a long tradition of transgender and third gender people. This is one of those images from the past that falls quite easily through the cracks because it is a collection of “exceptions”; it doesn’t fit nicely into categories that have been created and therefore, it’s more or less ignored. If anyone’s hesitant to be critical, maybe you should also note that both the articles linked above make claims that slavery in Brazil was “less harsh” than other places. What??? How many of our assumptions are being projected onto this painting? Are the “contradictions” present in it a product of the painting itself, or is the problem with the categories we try to place it in? How many layers do we have to fight uphill through when we even look at this image? After all, History teaches us: women weren’t artists Black people weren’t artists Black people were enslaved Enslaved people didn’t do anything of worth Transgender, genderqueer and third gender people didn’t exist before the 1960s white people control how Black images are perceived, but not the other way around gender must be immediately perceivable and fit into our categories of “male” and “female” ^ So this is the baggage we bring with us when we look at this image. We look at this painting, and we actively search for indicators that allow us to continue to believe the above assumptions. If we take away those assumptions, if we try to move past them and see this portrait with new eyes, what are we left with? Whose History do we see here? Maybe it’s mine; maybe it’s yours. Excellent points! The viewer should remain open-minded, and critical - especially of their own potential bias. Your argument ends there though - you did absolutely nothing to directly refute the points made in the quoted text, aside from attempt to cast doubt on the validity of the source. But at least they offered a named source for their information, even if it was a little weak. You started off really well with this, but should have gone farther. Indeed, the important nature of this topic demands it! Medievalpoc tagged resources Medievalpoc tagged books This post is not necessarily an “argument” for or against anything more than a reframing of the image so we can look at it differently than it is being presented to us. If you want to make some kind of point beyond that, then the ball’s in your court. I think the problem here is that people’s expectations involving history is that the answers have already been found or decided, that everything fits neatly into categories, and that there are simple explanations for everything. The truth is that history is still being written, revised, revisited, and analyzed, and that is a good thing. If “the important nature of this topic demands it”, then maybe it demands that you do something about it. Because both race and gender are seen as causing some kind of conflict in this work, we need to look at it with a changed perspective from both directions. (In addition, rather than drive people toward art history academia, I’m trying to bring art history academia TO people, although YMMV and it probably does a bit of both.) What’s I’m doing here is going to be sort of based around materials like this: And classes like this: [source] It’s been my hope that some of the questions I ask and ruminate on during the course of what is basically liveblogging a research project can be seized upon by academic disciplines that are specialized, and given the time and attention they deserve. What I do here is certainly specialized, but it’s interdisciplinary. It’s about how these things fit together and create a narrative we can follow, and that we can relate to today. It’s my hope that people can see what is already here, and take this lens to the histories of science, literature, philosophy, and even the history of history. Part of that involves me being only one person and subject to human limitations, but it’s also about inspiring inquiry. Maybe history has a mystery it’s waiting for you to solve.

G20 peaceful Protest rally on Canada day.
Peaceful protesters Demanding a Public Inquiry into Toronto G20.
Feel free to share
Oh Canada, our home and native land.
We stand on guard for you
July 10, 2010 - Protesters took to the streets to call for an inquiry into police actions during the G20 Toronto Summit.
The project's announcement poster celebrates the six participating Carnegie Branch libraries as centers of their neighborhoods and doorways to knowledge. Images also honor the community workshop process whereby many individuals contributed stories, images and time to the "End of the Line" art project. On each of the twenty buses, this poster was on display in the advertisement slot behind the driver's seat. Posters were also mounted and on display at all of Allegheny County's Carnegie Main and branch libraries. Launched spring 1997, the "End of the Line" website was made by Link and Speranza and was the first for a STUDIO for Creative Inquiry project. This was the first poster coming from the STUDIO with a URL on it.
The Bannatynes held Corra or 'Corrocks' from the Abbey of Kelso from the twelfth century. In 1400 the Abbot appointed an inquiry as to the succession of William Bannatyne to the estate. There was a scattering of Bannatyne families around Scotland around that time, most notably in Forfarshire (from where the Cora family probably came) and Bute. They are thought to have built the castle here in either the 15th century (MacGibbon & Ross) or 16th century. I am guessing they aquired the estate from the church at the Reformation because in 1695 Sir J. Bannatyne is said to have sold the estate to a William Somerville of Cambusnethan*.
*For those, like me, that like their genealogy, this (widely reported) William Somerville is a bit of a mystery. There are extensive pedigrees of the Somerville family, but I am unable to identify him. I have found (in Stirnet) a William Somerville of Cambusnethan, ancestor of the Somervilles of Kennox, but he doesn't fit in with the known Somervilles of Cambusnethan.
You may remember (if you read it!) that I wrote fairly extensively under Cawthalley Castle about the relationship between the Lords Somerville and their cousins at Cambusnethan, and how eventually in 1647, James Somerville of Drum, de jure 10th Lord Somerville, bought Cambusnethan back again. So there should be a William Somerville a generation or 2 after the 10th Lord, but there isn't!
But, maybe there never was, because there is a different link to the Bannatynes of Corehouse.
Like many another laird in the mid-17th century, with civil war raging all around him, the 10th Lord Somerville was very aware that backing the wrong side could cost him his head and his heir his inheritance. His son, James Master of Somerville (and future de jure 11th Lord) had joined the King's Guard in Edinburgh, but when Charles II decided to march into England, Somerville senior managed to remove his son from the royal guard, but not from the army. However, the army's line of march passed within a short distance of Corhouse, where Martha Bannatyne, the Master of Somerville's betrothed lived. She sent Somerville junior a message (prompted by Somerville senior), and on arriving here, he was shut up (hopefully not in the underground dungeon!) until the army was too far off to be rejoined.
While the Royalist army marched to defeat at the Battle of Worcester on 3 September 1651, the Master of Someville duly married Martha Bannatyne at Lesmahagow church on 13 November 1651. Martha was the daughter of John Bannatyne of Corehouse, which would seem to me to be a rather more likely way for Corehouse to have passed to the Somervilles - and what's more, the Master of Somerville's mother was also a Bannatyne - the 10th Lord Somerville having married Lilias Bannatyne, daughter of Sir James Bannatyne of Newhall.
So I am not saying that Sir William Somerville of Cambusnethan neither existed nor bought Corehouse, after all, MacGibbon & Ross tell us he did, I'm just saying I can't find him and there is a possible alternative connection.
Selected division and regional education supervisors from the Department of Education in the Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao (DepEd ARMM) completed a two-day “appreciative team development” workshop from 14 to 15 November 2013 as a preparatory process for the series of project planning workshops that they will conduct under the initiative “Boosting Advancement and Development of Gains in Education.” Facilitated by SEAMEO INNOTECH, the appreciative team development workshop enabled its participants to collectively come up with a process design and implementation plan for the three-day workshops that they will hold under the BADGE initiative.

The Pelotonia Finish Line at Kenyon College in Gambier on Saturday, August 5, 2017. [Barbara J. Perenic/Dispatch]
On Wednesday 21 January the Health and Social Care Committee met with service users and service providers from across Wales as part of their inquiry into alcohol and substance misuse.
As part of the inquiry, the Committee wanted to know about the effect that alcohol and substance misuse has on the people of Wales, how well these issues re currently being tackles, and whether the right local services are in place across Wales to help people and make sure that they know about the possible harms.
Participants gave their views through a reference group which will help the Committee make sure that they can take into account how alcohol and substance misuse affects real people in Wales on a daily basis.
The Committee will now consider the outcomes of the discussion, alongside other evidence given in formal oral evidence sessions and written submissions. They will use this information to write a report about the issue which will include recommendations to the Welsh Government.
More information about the inquiry can be found here:
