Albert Einstein's posits the theory of relativity


In 1946

Albert Einstein traveled to the Lincoln University in Pennsylvania to teach at the first school in America to grant college degrees to black students.


While teaching at the university, Einstein gave a powerful speech in which he described racism as “a disease of white people.” He added, “I do not intend to be quiet about it.” As a member of the Jewish community in 1940s Europe, Einstein was familiar with the horrendous outcomes of racist attitudes. Here, he is giving a lecture on his theory of relativity to Lincoln students.

Ms Perfect posture 1956



In May, 1956, a beauty contest was hosted at a chiropractic convention in Chicago. This photo displays the three proud winners with their trophies for perfect posture

The contest winners were picked based on the beauty of their X-rays and their standing posture. Each girl had to stand on a pair of scales with one foot on each. The three winners distributed their weight equally on each meaning they had the correct standing posture. The event was hosted to improve the reputation of chiropractic, which was a relatively new profession at the time

Franceska Mann
The brave Franceska Mann (pictures) was a Polish-Jewish dancer who was taken to Auschwitz in 1943. When she was ordered to strip, she did so in a provocative manner which momentarily distracted the guards. While they were admiring her physique, she quickly grabbed the roll call officer's gun and shot him, killing him instantly. She wounded one other guard and her bravery inspired other prisoners to join her rebellion. Unfortunately, the rebellion was unsuccessful and all the prisoners who partook in the rebellion were shot dead

The 1966 Blizzard



In 1966, a terrible blizzard swept across the United States and the East side of the Rocky Mountains.

The blizzard bought heavy snowfall and temperatures that reached record lows. At least 142 people died during the blizzard and 31 of these froze to death. Many people also died in fires that started while people were desperately trying to heat their homes. By the time the storm eased, the death toll had reached 201. This photo illustrates just how deep the snow levels reached.

Moving a 5MB hard drive



In this photograph, at least four men are struggling to maneuver the hard drive onto a truck. The IBM Model could hold 5 MB of storage which is about 6 images worth. A company could lease the storage for $3,200 a month which is probably around $30,000 today when you account for inflation!. The average smartphone has up to a total of 100000 MB

And dis is the Onion pyramid of nigeria.

Saundra Brown

Potato Sack Marilyn

In 1951, Marilyn Monroe was snapped wearing a low-cut red dress to a party. The next day, a columnist slated her and claimed that she looked "cheap and vulgar." He then commented that she would have looked more decent in a potato sack than in her red dress.


Marilyn had her own special way of responding to critics and dealt with his harsh comments with her wicked sense of humor. She simply responded with this brilliant photo proving that even in a potato sack, she still looks impossibly amazing

Humanity


World War II was a difficult time for everyone, including the animals. Many of these animals were creatures that had been transported to Europe prior to the war. This photograph shows a citizen taking care of a curious looking bird. The bird was from Berlin Zoo and was just one of the many animals that ended up in the care of citizens as the Soviet troops approached Berlin in 1945. Imagine trying to use the bathroom with this crazy creature swanning about

Alcohol smuggling in a timber truck in the US



In 1926, the American federal government increased the amount of methanol in alcohol to discourage people from drinking. They had tried to prohibit the use of alcohol but it consistently failed and so they had to take their own drastic measures.




This increased the demand for bootleg liquor meant that smuggling alcohol became popular trade. In this photograph, the police are inspecting a lumber truck which had been used to smuggle alcohol via a makeshift window disguised as a stack of lumber.



Twitter somebody?

lots of my previous topics focuses on the African history , this is world history. And sadly no tribe in Nigeria/Africa knows where they are from , its all mythical either the Yoruba's who fell from the sky with a gravitational pulley Chain, crazy chicken and earth(dirt), or the Muslims who believe they are Arabs , even the Igbo's who belive the came from the middle east , Sadly no concrete evidence , even the oral traditions are ridiculous and far fetched. Best origin story is life evolved from Africa , that is concrete evidence.

Candy at last



This wonderful photo is reminiscent of the U.S. on Black Fridays. All of these people are rushing inside a sweet shop on the day that sweet rationing ended in England, 1953.

Since the start of World War II, sweets had been rationed alongside many other items including eggs, milk and sugar. The year that the sweet ration ended, sales of confectionary increased by £100 million. Like the children in this photo, people all across the country queued to get their candy on the day the ration ended

A lot of foreigners on this platform. It's so glaring you are one of those western spy on every African platform. You are one of those who use the word like "African mentality" while the white want to be look down on their own history, culture and tradition. You twist African histories and make yours look superior.

I know you won't stop trying to keep enslaving Africans but one day all Africans will be free from mental slavery.

TV for the first time


The boy must be no more than nine or ten years old and has stumbled passed a shop window of an appliance store in the late 40s. A television set is being displayed in the window and his shocked expression is a result of the fact he has never seen a television in his life. The magical box displaying moving pictures had blown his mind.

portraits



So in th e last couple of centuries you had to pose a long time to get one frame taken



This Victorian couple were not in a photo booth but were getting their portraits done professionally. They posed in their smartest clothes ,stood there long enough but couldn't help but get the giggles. The third and fourth photo show them trying (and failing!) not to laugh.

First Kilt

This Italian woman is curiously inspecting the kilt of a Scottish soldier. The soldiers are standing near the Coliseum after the liberation of Rome in 1944.

During the liberation, shops were closed and huge crowds of people took to the streets to cheer and hurl flowers at passing vehicles. They were celebrating Hitler's announcement that he had ordered all troops to withdraw from Rome.



While many photographs were taken of the celebrations, this image captures an Italian woman innocently taking a look at what we presume to be the first kilt she has seen

'We Thrive no matter what



In the 1940s, London was bombed day and night for nearly two months. This woman has had her home destroyed by a bomb but this has not stopped her from enjoying her special day. Dressed in a stunning white dress, the bride steps around the rubble with a big smile on her face. Her bridesmaid smiles and waves from the window, ignoring the destruction of the property to join in celebration of the happiest day of her friend's life.

Lolzzz

Yes, i've been doing that.

We just need to focus on our history. We need to retrace our root and build our development on our foundation just as the west. We need to stop feeding our children foreign histories. It's not helping.

Football Truce

During Christmas 1914, French, German and British soldiers called an unofficial ceasefire along the Western front.

In the spirit of Christmas, the soldiers ventured into no-man's land to chat, exchange gifts and swap prisoners. In some camps, they even partook in joint burial services for their lost soldiers and the meetings ended in carol singing




The event became known as the Christmas Truce and is best known by photos of men from both sides playing a friendly game of soccer together.

Your statement says it all, a niga like you who trade his culture and tradition for foreign fairytales.

President Nixon Resigns


Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein are sat together side by side watching President Nixon resign in 1974.

The Watergate scandal had shocked America for two years and rather than admit to his wrongdoings, Nixon stepped down halfway through his second term.



Btw- Nixon decriminalized Marijuana for his greedy gain and race war , knowing fully well War on drugs was a scam motto ' in other words Nixon was not a good guy



The Watergate scandal tarnished his legacy and Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein were the reporters who brought the scandal to the public's attention. Here, they are triumphantly watching as they witness their journalist venture result in the president's resignation.
