—Did you know that Juneteenth is also celebrated in a part of Mexico? Nacimiento Mexico was once home to thousands who escaped slavery in the US. As many as 10,000 slaves followed a clandestine Southern Underground Railroad to Mexico. —To date, many Black Mexicans from the Texas area retrace a portion of the same route their African American ancestors followed in 1850 when they escaped slavery. —Descendants of slaves who escaped across the southern border observe Texas’s emancipation holiday with their own unique traditions in the village of Nacimiento. —Slave hunters would patrol the southern border for escapees, led by the Texas Rangers but the Mexican army would be there waiting for them (the slave hunters) to turn them away.

Tulancingo cuirassier

Years ago I visited the Museum of Mexico City and I was fascinated with a small scale figure of a Tulancingo cuirassier, after thinking about it and after a few months of work I finally finished the illustration of that figure that I liked so much

Todos. Y abro hilo del cómo:

Taehyung sería el de la idea, que porque "somos chavos" y "por la anécdota".

Jimin sería como "estás pendejo, pero más pendejo yo si te dejo hacerlo solo. ÁMONOOOOOOOS".

JK lo haría porque le dijeron "culo si no".

Hobi pensaría que es mala idea pero cedería por presión de la Maknae Line. Le tendrían que agarrar de la mano todo el rato.

Jin se pachequearía sin querer por comerse uno sin preguntar.

Yoongi se comería uno completo porque "no pega" y entraría en coma todo un día.

Namjoon se comería responsablemente un cuarto por "motivos espirituales". Termina siendo el "¿se acuerdan cuando...?" y bajita la mano insisitiría con el "que se repita la ocasión".

After the earthquakes in Kahramanmaraş, the epicenter of the earthquake, the dog named Proteo, who worked with the team that Mexico sent to Turkey, was left under the rubble of the building that collapsed on him while he was searching.

The dog, which was pulled out from under the rubble, could not be saved despite all the interventions.

MEXICO ARRESTS DRUG LORD CARO QUINTERO, WANTED FOR KILLING US AGENT

Mexico’s navy on Friday captured drug lord Rafael Caro Quintero, convicted of murdering a U.S. anti-narcotics agent in 1985, in a law enforcement coup that came at a heavy cost when a helicopter used in the mission crashed, killing 14 military personnel.Marines flushed out Caro Quintero with a bloodhound in a far-flung corner of the northwestern state of Sinaloa, one of Mexico’s drug-trafficking…

Okay so the animators specifically went out of their way to show Charles ripping his robe off to reveal his suit before him and Orlaag started fighting,

but they never showed Orlaag taking his coat off before he fought, they just immediately cut to him and Charles whooping each other's asses, and because of that I can now headcanon that Orlaag threw down that big ass cement hammer he was carrying around and took off his jacket with the same aggressiveness as a Mexican girl getting in a fight and nobody can say it didn't happen.

I'm looking at the American Civil War forum again since it's such a treasure trove.

So many people are trying to figure out if this one blurry af photo is Grant but it's so hard to tell because of how blurry it is. I think it'd be a great idea to try and photoshop restore it (unfortunately I don't think I'm experienced enough to try...and Grant or whoever it is will be starting at me with scary cold blue eyes the whole time [my username was deliberated on very carefully])

Someone posted a photo of potentially Stonewall Jackson during the Mexican-American War. Personally I have not seen enough photos of Jackson to make an argument for or against it being him.

OP says: "Is this a photo of a young Jackson? I tend to believe that it is, although I've only seen it recently here on the forum and lacking in attribution as to where the original can be found... The war with Mexico in 1846 which coincided with Jackson's graduation and commissioning as a Second Lieutenant in the artillery branch of the United States Army was likely the first opportunity for him to have his "likeness" taken. Supporting the identification of the image as Jackson in Mexico are of course the non-regulation headgear, but also the white buff saber belt supporting the regulation Saber for the Light Artillery, though it appears to be an enlisted model rather than one for an officer... It was not unusual in either the Mexican or Civil War for officers to carry enlisted men's swords and sabers, especially in the South and while in the field."

LOOK AT HIS EYES!!!! The legend of old Blue-Light is true! If judging by his eyes alone I think the glimmer in his eyes is definitely a clue. Also, lovely hat and saber here. Notice the pinky ring. Maybe it is a class ring following his previous graduation at West Point? According to West Point, class rings began as a tradition in 1835, so it definitely could be so!
