Sept 16, 1776: Washington gets his first #battlefield win, bolstering #revolutionary #troops (both sides claimed victory), against the #British in North #Manhattan.
At #Harlem Heights, later becoming Morningside Heights, 9K for #Washington fought 5K for #KingGeorge. The Brits ran out of #artillery & #retreated, so Washington called his men back to the line (hence their claim of #victory).
After this, the Brits sent #reinforcements and soon Washington retreated to NJ, PA.

A quotation from Bertrand Russell
Hostility to the status quo may be derived from either of two sources: it may spring from sympathy with the unfortunate or from hatred of the fortunate. If it springs from the latter, it involves just as much limitation of sympathy as is involved in conservatism. Many revolutionaries in their day-dreams are not so much concerned with the happiness that is to come to the common people as with the vengeance that they will be able to wreak upon the insolent holders of power from whom they are suffering in the present.
Bertrand Russell (1872–1970) English mathematician and philosopher
Education and the Social Order [Education and the Modern World], ch. 1 “The Individual versus the Citizen” (1932)More about this quote: wist.info/russell-bertrand/860…

M.H.R.
The Passion and Redemption of a Proletarian Seer It’s barely been ten days but this is different. I wrote the following piece on M.H.R., as I like to call him, many months ago. And, even though I’ve sent it out to a range of outlets, no one wants to publish it. So (partly to test the possibility of using this newsletter as a very occasional substack as well) I’m sharing it directly with you. In the light of the film that was made about him, M.H.R. feels not only significant but also […] -
