Hej alle.

Er der et behov for en fælles gruppe, hvor der formidles Skåne med Bornholm, Halland og Blekinges fælles danske historie?

Afrika som det så ud (næsten) inden kolonimagterne "delte kagen" med en linial. Ok, der er faktisk meget fransk og engelsk afrika på det kort.

Black cowgirls played a vital, yet often overlooked, role in shaping the American West. These women were not only skilled riders and ranchers, but they also helped build communities in a time when opportunities for African Americans, particularly women, were limited. Many Black women in the West were daughters of formerly enslaved people, and their resilience and hard work helped them forge their own paths on the frontier. Whether working as cattle ranchers, cowhands, or in other essential roles, Black cowgirls were integral to the development of ranching culture.
These women were often involved in the daily operations of cattle drives, managing livestock, and maintaining ranches. They participated in the same demanding physical labor as their male counterparts, including branding cattle, roping, and participating in rodeos. Black cowgirls like Mary Fields, known as "Stagecoach Mary," became famous for their strength, independence, and skill. Mary Fields worked as a stagecoach driver, breaking barriers by proving herself as a capable and fearless woman in a profession dominated by men. Her story is one of many that highlights the diverse contributions of Black women in shaping the history of the American West.
The legacy of Black cowgirls continues to be celebrated today, as they are recognized for their contributions to both African American and Western history. Their stories are an essential part of the broader narrative of the American frontier, illustrating the strength, perseverance, and pioneering spirit of these remarkable women. While they faced numerous challenges, Black cowgirls left a lasting impact on ranching, rodeo culture, and the West itself, helping to shape the future for generations to come.

Er der nogen der kan huske at have sejlet med denne luxusskude til Kalundborg? ps. ankom toget på kajen? fra ca. 1961 (det tog 3 timer, og den blev kaldt for hurtigruten :-))

Bornholm er stedet for kirker i mange farver og former, og mange spændende historier.

Waterloo - ja, det var jo et stort slag :-)

Dette flag er det oprindelige danske flag, som hed Danibrok,(Dannebrog) eller "Ravnebanneret".

Det er Odins ene Ravn, som er placeret, som sort på rød baggrund.

Det nuværende Dannebrog fra 1219 er tempelriddernes kristne symbol.
