The horrors and hopes of war

 

From the NY Times. This young man lost his legs, but helpers at an old hospital are helping him.

I just watched an excellent NETFLIX FILM called DESCENDANT, about the effects of slavery in the USA.

The slave ship Clotilde was found - parts of it anyway - the last ship, they say, to sail into the south. 

ALEXA, can you help me straighten out my living room.

Ancient Pompeii, a city like our own, except buried in volcanic ash. 

Several years ago I was there, yes, me, and I saw their amphora and pizza ovens and houses of ill repute.
