The cleaner, who describes herself as 'free-spirited' says the role has made her feel more body confident and even says it's empowering.

The Luvas sisters, Trudy and Struppi, formerly of Heidelberg, Germany, practice a high-flying act suspended from a helicopter piloted by Frank Horn in Denver on September 15, 1955. Trudy holds on to the helicopter under rigging by her knees while the swing dangles from a hook in a belt around her neck. Struppi swings from the bar, holding on only by the back of her head and neck. They claim it is the first time two persons have performed such feats from a helicopter.

Opinion: 50 years ago, LAPD raided the Black Panthers. SWAT teams have been targeting Black communities ever since

-
Image
In the early morning hours of Dec. 8, 1969, Bernard Arafat awoke to explosions rocking the library of the Black Panthers’ 41st and Central Avenue headquarters in Los Angeles. Above him, footsteps stomped across the roof. Then gunfire erupted. Arafat wasn’t a seasoned Panther. He was a 17-year-old runaway from juvenile hall whose parents had both died when he was 13. After years of committing small-time crimes, Arafat was taken in by the Panthers and gained a sense of purpose. He helped with the organization’s breakfast program, feeding hungry kids on their way to school. Arafat had never fired a gun. But as he listened to the sound of bullets and heard the screams of his fellow Panthers, he made a decision. “I found an automatic shotgun and defended myself.” Across the country at the time, police antipathy toward the Panthers was rising, in part  fueled by dirty tricks from the FBI’s conintelpro unit . As McKinley, who participated in the raid, said: “We had to take them out.” The ...

The burning man was set alight by rival supporters of the African National Congress in Soweto, South Africa, on September 15, 1990. Photographer Greg Marinovich was a member of the so-called Bang Bang Club, four white photographers who worked for agencies and newspapers in Johannesburg. Together, they covered the wave of violent political clashes that plagued the nation’s black townships at the time.

Commonwealth soldiers in a British military base pose with the severed head of an MNLA guerrilla killed during Malayan Emergency, 1951. This photograph was first published on the 28 April 1952 by the British communist newspaper the Daily Worker (Morning Star), causing a political scandal throughout the British government, exposing the widespread practice of Iban headhunters fighting for the British decapitating the corpses of anti-colonial guerrillas. On 28 April 1952 a photograph of a British soldier exhibiting the head of an alleged communist insurgent was published on the front page of the  Daily Worker   newspaper under the heading ‘THIS IS THE WAR IN MALAYA’.

British efforts to suppress an independence struggle led by the c...

The body of an unidentified man lies on a road barrier near a village recently retaken by Ukrainian forces on the outskirts of Kharkiv, Ukraine, Saturday, April 30, 2022 Death in Ukraine's Kharkiv is Everywhere, Rarely Explained   The outskirts of Kharkiv have the feel of an open-air morgue, where the dead lie unclaimed and unexplained, sometimes for weeks on end, as Ukrainian and Russian forces fight for control of slivers of land. There is the charred body of a man, unidentifiable, propped on an anti-tank barrier made of crossed I-beams outside a town that has been under the control of both sides in recent days. There are the dead soldiers, apparently Russian, four of them arranged in a Z like the military symbol found on Russian armored vehicles, visible to the Russian drones that continuously buzz overhead. The door to an apartment opens to three bodies inside. Precisely how any of this happened will likely never be known. Kharkiv, Ukraine's second-largest city, has been un...

Florida's Messiest Execution

Florida's Messiest Execution On July 8, 1999, the execution of Allen Lee Davis set off a shock wave that rippled around the world. During his time in the electric chair, Davis bled profusely from the nose and suffered burns to his head, leg, and groin area. As the switch was thrown, the “Tiny” Davis, who was executed for the May 11, 1982, murder of Nancy Weiler and her two daughters, reared back against the restraints, giving witnesses a chilling glimpse under a black hood designed to hide the faces of the condemned. Blood poured from his vivid purple nose, ran down the wide leather strap that covered his mouth and soaked the white shirt. After the power was turned off, Davis was still alive. Witnesses said his chest rose and fell about 10 times before he went still. After the execution, state prison officials and Governor Jeb Bush said the Old Sparky functioned properly. Three photos of the incident have been published on Florida’s High Court official website in an attempt to argu...
