Once again batting 1.000 on this newsletter! MN is finally being stable at warm temperatures, so all winter depression is gone (along with ap tests). Hopefully the Europe trip starts to get better!
My favorite short film is "Something Good - Negro Kiss" (1898), which is the oldest known film to show two Black people kissing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIKU5kncg8U
Here's a fun follow-up fact about the pool tax in Athens: instead of just paying their taxes, after the authorities put that pool tax into place and started checking using Google earth, there was a huge boom in camouflage green pool covers "some with artificial grass on top" that made the pools look like lawns from above!! https://www.nytimes.com/2011/02/21/world/europe/21greece.html
