Ancient Egyptian Gods, Tomb of Queen Nefertari
The deities shown (from left to right) are Horus, and three of his four sons, Duamutef, Qebehsenuef and Hapi. In Egyptian mythology, the sons of Horus represent the four canopic jars that contain the embalmed organs of the deceased.
Queen Nefertari Meritmut lived around 1300-1255 BC and was the first wife of the pharaoh Ramesses II. Her tomb was rediscovered in 1904 by the Italian archaeologist Ernesto Schiaparelli. It is located in the Valley of the Queens, near the ancient city of Thebes, and is considered the best preserved and most ornate of all known tombs.
On this day, 15 January 1929, minister and civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. was born in Atlanta, Georgia.
While famous for advocating non-violent resistance, he did not condemn those who rioted, and he personally had armed guards and a private arsenal to protect himself, and applied for a permit to carry a concealed weapon which was denied by racist authorities.
Towards the end of his life he became increasingly radical, criticising militarism, war, poverty and capitalism as well as racism, which alienated some of his liberal supporters.
For example, he said that people “must ask the question, ‘Why are there forty million poor people in America? And when you begin to ask that question, you are raising questions about the economic system, about a broader distribution of wealth.’ When you ask that question, you begin to question the capitalistic economy. And I’m simply saying that more and more, we’ve got to begin to ask questions about the whole society”.

On this day, 25 March 1969, Pakistan’s dictator Ayub Khan resigned, following mass protests against his regime which began in October. Initially the government violently repressed student protests, but that triggered increased opposition. In the countryside, peasants killed landowners and police, while in the cities industrial workers held gheraos – mass pickets encircling factories. The following year the first elections in Pakistan’s history took place. This is a short history of the movement: https://ift.tt/2UU1s8j https://ift.tt/2CAWNBe
