The Ice Harvest
In the late 1800s and early 1900s, ice was big business. Companies would cut grids into lakes and rivers, harvest the ice piece by piece, and store it in massive, insulated icehouses to be sold throughout the summer. Ice was delivered to homes 7 days a week. Butchers depended on it to keep meat fresh. Breweries needed to keep their lager cold. Farmers needed it for their milk tanks. Funeral homes had to keep bodies cool.
In Southeastern Wisconsin, the Wisconsin Lakes Ice and Cartage Co. dominated the industry from the shores of the Milwaukee River. Founded in 1849 by German immigrant John Kopmeier, Wisconsin Lakes boasted hundreds of employees and delivery horses by the turn of the century.
Before it could be packed and stored, ice had to be trimmed into clear, square blocks. After a harvest, Wisconsin Lakes often had a massive pile of scrap ice outside its warehouse. This photo, circa 1900, shows a popular local pass time - climbing on top of the ice to take “North Pole expedition” photos.

On this day, 9 August 1956, 20,000 women in Pretoria, South Africa marched against pass laws: apartheid laws curtailing freedom of movement for black and Indian people. The Federation of South African Women-organised demonstration delivered a petition against the laws with 100,000 signatures and the participants sang “Wathint’Abafazi Wathint’imbokodo” meaning ‘Now you have touched the women, you have struck a rock’. The protest kickstarted a wave of civil disobedience across the country over two years in which thousands of women were arrested, until ANC leaders panicked and called it off. 9 August is commemorated today in South Africa as Women’s Day. This is a short account of the movement: https://ift.tt/2AW46EZ

“Before the 1450s, Europeans considered Africans exotic but not necessarily inferior. As more and more nations joined the slave trade, Europeans came to characterize Africans as stupid, backward, and uncivilized. Amnesia set in; Europe gradually found it convenient to forget that Moors from Africa had brought Spain and Italy much of the learning that led to the Renaissance. Europeans had known that Timbuktu, with its renowned university and library, was a center of learning. Now, forgetting Timbuktu, Europe and European Americans percieved Africa as the “dark continent”. By the 1850s many white Americans, including some Northerners, claimed that black people were so hopelessly inferior that slavery was a proper form of education for them; it also removed them physically from the alleged barbarism of the “dark continent”.”— Lies My Teacher Told Me by James W. Loewen

I’ve been asked many times what someone should look for when trying to find a good artist. The best way you can do this is to look at their portfolio, whether it’s in a book at their shop or online. If they don’t have good work in their portfolio, they’re probably not good artists.
The shop may be clean, the people there might be nice, and the design they draw up for you might be exactly what you want, but if your artist doesn’t stand up to the points listed above, then you’re going to get a bad tattoo.
It’s okay to walk into a shop, talk with an artist for a while, and decide you don’t want a tattoo from them. Even if the artist has a bad attitude about it or tries to convince you to just let them do it, remember this is going to be on your body for the rest of your life.
This is fucking fantastic thank you!!
So important. I had an apprentice tattoo me once without any supervision - wound up with a blurry tattoo, and a messed up tendon for a while after >:(
