Hype for the Future 12A: Historyland
Within the Commonwealth of Virginia, even in spite of guilty historical ideas such as slavery and plantation culture, the region continues to maintain a presence and status as the origin story of the United States of America. Numerous plantations, particularly within the Northern Neck and along the north side of the James River, are largely identified by numerous historical figures such as the Washington, Custis, Lee, Tayloe, Madison, and Monroe families. Further inland is the Jefferson […]https://novatopflex.wordpress.com/2025/11/13/hype-for-the-future-12a-historyland/

Pesticide spray drift from intensive horticulture on the the mid-north coast NSW -
Discontent in the region.Home owners, dairy and beef producers among those concerned about how pesticide use affects their land as well as water quality on the mid-north coast
“Between 2001 and 2016 blueberry farming expanded 400% – mainly around the Coffs Harbour region.”
“This monitoring showed the continued detection of pesticides in most waterways sampled, highlighting the need for ongoing monitoring in the region.”
“Monitoring in the Nambucca valley by the EPA has detected three different pesticides in low levels in three creeks, suggesting water quality in the area is not being impacted by excessive amounts of pesticides.”

"As the foundation of modern political systems, the nature/culture divide had profound consequences for the production of a ‘science of man’, distinguishing between men and women, body and mind, civilised and savage, and arguably human and semi-human.
[…]
"Since the first steps of Columbus, the ‘colonial bioprospecting’ has been inventorying plant, mineral and animal species for profit. To it was added an ‘ethnoprospecting’, i.e. a universal census and classification of human species, which are also thought to have ‘different natures’. By becoming ‘as diverse as nature itself’, humanity is broken down into phenotypes rather than geographical origins, and we slide from a descriptive vision to a normative view, predisposed to hierarchy."Sylvie Laurent in "Capital et race : Histoire d'une hydre moderne"

Ben Affleck got PBS to cover up the fact that an unnamed-in-the-article ancestor was a slave owner. I wonder if it was Thomas Affleck, whose publication The Cotton Plantation Record and Account Book was a major influence on the use of the pushing system which, through unspeakable violence, allowed cotton planters to rapidly and continually increase the productivity of their slaves.
Thomas Affleck's work figures prominently in Caitlin Rosenthal's breakthrough work Accounting for Slavery, which traces the origin of modern management techniques, including Taylorism, back to methods employed on cotton plantations.

Un appel contre #Bolloré : « Bloquons ses plateaux télés, occupons ses dépôts pétroliers, soutenons les luttes syndicales à l’intérieur de ses entreprises et médias, vendangeons ses vignes, redistribuons son fuel domestique à celleux qui galèrent à se chauffer, traquons le traceur, tissons des alliances internationales, organisons des boycotts, virons ses chaînes de la TNT et soutenons la création et l’assise de contre-pouvoirs médiatiques puissants ! »
