Women (mostly white women, depending on location) would only get the right to vote in 1920, and the universal right to vote would only become the law of the land in 1965.

She was Thomas J. Randolph’s daughter and was sold to the Garrett family. She was recaptured, after trying to run away, and put on the auction block and sold to a Dr. Cox, who made her his mistress. They had five children, one of them Nannie Cox Jackson, a noted Charlottesville educator and community leader. When Emancipation came, in 1865, Elizabeth Scott determined to live independently and supported her family by working as a dressmaker. People like her, determined to live free, could be part of our national mythology.

Led by the Dutch navigator and explorer William Barents (c.1550-1597), this expedition attempted to find the Northeast Passage from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Barents died in June the following year as they attempted to escape. This engraving is from ^IThe Three voyages of William Barents to the Arctic Regions^i (Amsterdam, circa 1600) by Gerrit de Veer, a member of the third expedition.https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/de-veer-polar-bear.jpgde Veer polar bearhttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/de-veer-polar-bear-4.pngde veer polar bear 4https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/de-veer-polar-bear-3.jpgde veer polar bear 3https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/de-veer-polar-bear-2.jpgde veer polar bear 22019-09-02T08:06:21+00:00monthlyhttps://theamsterdamned.com/2019/08/27/optics-are-everything/https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/peter-paul-reubens-galileo_galilei_by_peter_paul_rubens.jpgPeter Paul Reubens Galileo_Galilei_by_Peter_Paul_Rubenshttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/johannes_vermeer_astonomer-leeuwenhoek-.jpgJohannes_Vermeer_Astonomer Leeuwenhoek-https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/christiaan_huygens-caspar-netscher.jpgChristiaan_Huygens-Caspar Netscherhttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/mac-by-night.jpgMac by nighthttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/dark-tower.jpgDark Towerhttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/dark-park.jpgDark Park2019-08-28T11:39:32+00:00monthlyhttps://theamsterdamned.com/2019/08/23/masters-of-light-and-shadow/https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/rembrandt-tulp.jpgRembrandt Tulphttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/vermeerish-3.jpgVermeerish 3https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/vermeerish-2.jpgVermeerish 2https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/vermeerish-1.jpgVermeerish 1https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/vermeer-writing.jpgvermeer writinghttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/vermeer-woman-writing-letter.jpgvermeer woman writing letterhttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/vermeer-woman-water-jug.jpgVermeer woman water jughttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/vermeer-procuress.jpgVermeer procuressJohannes Vermeer - The Procuresshttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/vermeer-milkmaid.jpgVermeer milkmaidhttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/vermeer-losing-my-religion.pngvermeer losing my religion2019-08-23T19:48:11+00:00monthlyhttps://theamsterdamned.com/2019/08/22/who-lives-who-dies-who-tells-your-story/https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/fort-michilimackinac-soldiers.jpgfort michilimackinac soldiershttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/fort-michilimackinac-raid-real.jpgFort Michilimackinac raid realhttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/fort-michilimackinac-raid-bad.jpgFort Michilimackinac raid badhttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/fort-michilimackinac-house.jpgFort Michilimackinac househttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/fort-michilimackinac-du-sable.jpgFort Michilimackinac du sablehttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/fort-michilimackinac-doorway.jpgFort Michilimackinac doorwayhttps://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/fort-michilimackinac-blacksmith.jpgFort Michilimackinac blacksmith2019-08-22T08:21:10+00:00monthlyhttps://theamsterdamned.com/2019/08/13/must-i-muscovado-yes/https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/mvimg_20190813_004715857.jpgMVIMG_20190813_004715857https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/mvimg_20190813_003827057.jpgMVIMG_20190813_003827057https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/mvimg_20190813_003736149.jpgMVIMG_20190813_003736149https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/mvimg_20190813_003101436.jpgMVIMG_20190813_003101436https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/mvimg_20190813_002930447.jpgMVIMG_20190813_002930447https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/mvimg_20190813_002718772.jpgMVIMG_20190813_002718772https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/mvimg_20190813_002516142.jpgMVIMG_20190813_0025161422020-08-21T22:25:35+00:00monthlyhttps://theamsterdamned.com/2019/08/07/theres-no-such-thing-as-a-dutch-vampire/https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/lilith-belgian.jpgLilith belgian"Lilith" (2013) - In the immortal words of Todrick Hall, you picked the wrong bitch, bitch.https://theamsterdamned.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/dutch-girl.jpgDutch girl in tulip field in HollandWindmills, tulips, traditional costume ... but no vampires.
