Resistance Fighter Lepa Radić
The Yugoslav Partisan was executed 83 years ago today at the age of 17.
In February 1943, Lepa Radić was captured while organizing a rescue of 150 citizens seeking refuge from the Axis. She attempted to protect them by firing at the Nazi SS forces but was eventually arrested. After 3 days of isolation + torture, during which Radic refused to divulge any information, the Germans sentenced her to death by hanging. Moments before her execution Radic was offered a pardon if she revealed the names. Her response: “I am not a traitor of my people. Those whom you are asking about will reveal themselves when they have succeeded in wiping out all you evildoers, to the last man.”

A quotation from Terry Pratchett
Not for the first time she reflected that there were many drawbacks to being a swordswoman, not least of which was that men didn’t take you seriously until you’d actually killed them, by which time it didn’t really matter anyway.
Terry Pratchett (1948-2015) English author
Discworld No. 2, The Light Fantastic (1986)More about this quote: wist.info/pratchett-terry/8163…

"Did you know in English they used to have female versions for some professions? They used to say 'authoress' for women authors and 'poetess' for woman poets."
"Kind of like we have 'stewardess' and 'actress' today?"
"We *don't* have those words today. It's 'flight attendant,' and 'actor' can be used regardless of gender."
"Ok...Where are you going with this?"
"Well, I think we should get rid of '#heroine.' It should be just 'hero,' and it should apply to all genders."

8. Partridges by Moonlight. (Part 1)
#FanFiction #TheApothecaryDiaries
#wss366 #MastoPromptBasen walked through the inn, tapping select soldiers on the arm and pointing outside. He toe-kicked those who were sleeping. Given his strength, Mao was glad that no ribs had been broken. The soldiers didn’t complain; they just rubbed their sides ruefully and exited the building as directed.
Mao followed and found half a dozen yawning soldiers assembled. Husky men and one woman. Unlike many nobles’ guards, these soldiers weren't selected for their good looks. Most of them were scarred veterans with equipment lovingly cared for. Even half asleep, they glanced warily about. Honor, not #greed, motivated these individuals.
“You sure you wouldn’t rather use the carriage?” Basen asked.
Mao snorted. “And let the whole valley know I’m coming?”
He nodded and turned to the woman. She was lightly armored, and Mao pegged her as a skirmisher. She had the pale-olive skin and high, wind-burned cheekbones of a northern rider. Her narrow eyes were beneath brows bleached by sun and dust. Women soldiers were rare but not unheard of. Like most female soldiers, she was probably a foreign mercenary, Mao thought, but she had to be dependable, otherwise she wouldn’t be here.
“Guard her,” Basen said, pointing to Mao. “The Moon Prince won’t forgive you if anything happens to her.”
“As you wish,” the woman answered. Her voice was husky, with a trace of an unfamiliar accent that rounded her vowels and clipped her consonants.
“Yes, definitely foreign,” Mao concluded.
The woman helped Mao up onto the horse. Leaning in so close Mao could smell the garlic on her breath, the woman said in a low tone that only Mao could hear, “Does the little #heroine need protection?” and clicked her tongue in disgust.
Mao gave her a sidelong glance, lips curling faintly. “Only from friendly fire,” she said, settling her grip on the reins.
The woman clicked her tongue again but said nothing more. It irked Mao that she was being treated like a helpless noble, but perhaps it was warranted. To a trained soldier, she would seem like a useless burden. However, she refused to stay behind. There were things she needed to do.

For 22,000 #Vietnamese & some #Cambodians, #CônSơn Island was literally the last stop on a journey that began with their arrest & incarceration on the mainland. Their crime? Resisting #ForeignInvaders du jour & fighting for their country’s independence & unification. In addition to execution, causes of death included disease & torture.
The French built the Côn Đảo prison complex in 1861 to hold #PoliticalPrisoners and handed it over to the South Vietnamese government in 1954. It was a political Alcatraz on steroids, with #inhumane living conditions, barbaric torture methods, no escape and, for many, no survival. The US & its client state collaborators honed this hell on Earth to #dystopian perfection.
Sáu was sent to 3 jails before being shipped to Côn Sơn Prison, because the French didn’t have the courage to carry out her death sentence on the mainland at a time when it was against #ColonialLaw to execute woman. She was the only female prisoner held by the French on Côn Sơn.
Like other Vietnamese who died for the cause of independence, Sáu, a national heroine who is celebrated in theater & song, was elevated to the status of ancestral spirit. Every Vietnamese city & town has a street named after her, as are many schools. She embodies the spirit of millions of Vietnamese throughout history, including soldiers of the First & Second Indochina War, who sacrificed everything, their youth, their health, their love, their personal happiness, & their lives, so that Vietnam could become a unified, sovereign nation.
“The lekima flower in full bloom, we are reminded of a heroine who died for future generations. The young lady so full of vitality fought against our enemies with firm spirit & even death could not force her to yield”. The song echoes in the mind of everybody who visits Hàng Dương cemetary in Côn Đảo district, Bà Rịa-Vũng Tàu province. Vo Thi Sau, the #heroine mentioned in the song, was #executed by the #French #colonialists at the foot of Chua mountain in the early morning of January 23, 1952. 60 years later, her immortal patriotism & sacrifice still shine in the heart of every Vietnamese person, particularly those who live on #ConDao island, once called “hell on the earth”. (Ref: VOVWorld)
The 20-hectare Hàng Dương cemetery holds the graves of more than 20,000 martyrs, including #revolutionary #martyr Lê Hồng Phong, patriot Nguyễn An Ninh & #hero Cao Văn Ngọc. Visitors are moved to see grave after grave, some named, some unnamed, stretching over the hill. Vo Thi Sau’s grave, set in gravel & soil shoveled by her fellow prisoners, lies in section B.
Sister Sau was already a legend when the ship carrying her docked at Con Dao island in 1952. At the execution, she refused to be blindfolded, wanting to admire the motherland’s landscape & sing until her last breath. Many families on Con Dao island have set up altars to worship sister Sau, whose legend has become eternal in Vietnamese hearts.

Võ Thị Sáu (1933 – 23 January 1952) was a #Vietnamese schoolgirl who fought as a #guerrilla against the #FrenchOccupiers of #Vietnam, then part of French #Indochina. She was captured, tried, convicted & executed by the French #colonialists in 1952. She was the first woman to be executed at Côn Sơn Prison.
Vo Thi Sau was no ordinary schoolgirl. She was just 14 when she tossed a grenade at a group of French soldiers, killing one & injuring 12 before escaping into a crowded market. A few years later, in 1952 aged just 19, she was executed by a French firing squad.
Minutes before her death, a priest asked if she wanted to confess & she simply replied: “I only regret not finishing destroying all the colonists and people who betrayed this nation.” She then demanded her captors take off her blindfold: “No need to cover my eyes, I want to look at this beloved country for the last time and I have the courage to look directly at your muzzle.” She refused to kneel & calmly sang “Tien Quan Ca,” the then national anthem of North Vietnam, before she was shot dead. Her last words were reportedly “Down with the French Colonialists, long-lasting independence Vietnam, long-live President Ho.” Bold & fearless, Sau has been seen as a #heroine & #martyr, beloved by her country ever since.
