Ich liebe ja Museen. Und damit ich meine Leidenschaft für schräge historische Fakten und Ausstellungsstücke auch im Alltag ab und zu mal ausleben kann, folge ich unter anderem den @museumfacts. Klicken und mitlesen lohnt sich! 👍

@museumfacts IT'S OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL.... it was Missouri vhnd.com/2021/04/13/the…
@museumfacts Whoa! I had no idea. Thank you. One more fact to just throw at my kids.
In Germany drinking beer is allowed from age 16, brandy etc. from age 18. We have some problems with alcoholics, but not more than the USA. I see more problems by dangerous deception such as this one on TIME - all wrong! Even with commercials: content.time.com/time/magazine/…
In the 1980s, the drinking age increased from 18 to 21 nationally because Reagan passed a bill in 1984 that required states to raise their drinking age to 21. The law essentially told them to enact the act or lose 10 per cent of their federal highway funding.
@museumfacts @museum_facts I have an early large print of this photo, which I believe my father purchased at an estate sale in S.F. sometime in the 50s or 60s. It's truly glorious. I wish this version of the Cliff House had survived - it's so grand. Very unlike the version I grew up with.
Can you imagine the heights we as humanity could hit if all people were supported and encouraged in fields they show interest in, instead of having to have extraordinary perseverance and drive just to have access to a library?
In 1959, police were called to a segregated library in South Carolina when 9-year-old Ronald McNair refused to leave. He later became a physicist and a NASA astronaut. Subsequently, the library that refused to lend him books is now named after him.
I’d never heard of this until now. Black Like Me is now on the reading list
In 1959, John Howard Griffin a white man disguised himself as a black man and travelled for six weeks on greyhound buses. After publishing his experiences with racism he was consequently forced to move to Mexico for several years due to death threats.

There was a movie about this on Netflix. If anybody remember the name that would be nice
As same-sex marriages were prohibited during the 1900s, Marcela Gracia Ibeas and Elisa Sánchez Loriga found a clever way to get married undetected. Elisa essentially disguised herself as a man and put down the name "Mario" on the marriage certificate. Galicia, Spain, 1901.
Vaccines save lives. Antivaxxer comments?
Children in an iron lung before the advent of the polio vaccination. Many children lived in these machines for months often alone without their parents. Sadly not all survived. Those who survived rarely made it after 18th birthday.
How would you explain this to your child?!
Mother and son watch a nuclear bomb testing in Navada, USA. 1953. Sadly winds routinely carried the fallout of these directly through to Southern Utah which led to increases in leukaemia, breast cancer, thyroid cancer and brain tumors between 1950 to 1980.
