In her 1932 painting Self-Portrait on the Borderline between Mexico and the United States, a defiant Frida straddles an imaginary boundary between Mexico and Detroit, where she was living at the time with her husband, the muralist Diego Rivera. The Mexican side is strewn with skulls, ruins, plants, and flowers with thick roots burrowed deep into the soil. The Detroit side contains factories, skyscrapers, and plumes of smoke—an industrial city that hides the natural cycle of life and death.

While living in Detroit, Kahlo became pregnant. She wrote of the pregnancy to her former physician, Leo Eloesser, her devoted correspondent from 1932 to 1951. She worried that pregnancy was too dangerous, that her body had been damaged by the famous streetcar accident that shattered part of her pelvis and punctured her uterus. Kahlo reported that her doctor in Detroit “gave me quinine and very strong castor oil for purge.” When the chemicals failed to end the pregnancy, her doctor declined to perform a surgical abortion, and Kahlo faced the prospect of carrying the risky pregnancy to term. She begged Eloesser to write to her doctor in Detroit, “since performing an abortion is against the law, maybe he is scared or something, and later it would be impossible to undergo such an operation.” We don’t know how Eloesser responded to Kahlo’s request, but two months later, she suffered a violent miscarriage.
In a painting she created after her experience, Henry Ford Hospital (La cama volando), Frida lies naked on a hospital bed, the sheets soaked with blood. Objects float in the space around her, attached to her stomach by umbilical cords made of red ribbon: a male fetus (her son), medical objects, and symbols like a snail and an orchid. Detroit’s stark, manufacturing skyline disturbs the background.

Regardless of her visceral distaste for Detroit and the horrible misfortune that occurred there, art historian Victor Zamudio Taylor claims it was here that “Kahlo, for the first time, consciously decides that she will paint about herself, and that she will paint the most private and painful aspects of herself.”

Honestly, as much as a love the Gilded Age and glitz glamor of the wealth it shows...what has really caught my attention is the plotline unions and mills
I am once again starting my campaign for Hollywood to create a mini series based on the Progressive era
And I want it as dark, gritty, a realistic as possible.

Lecture 16: PUNK! Pioneering American proto-punk band MC5, founded in Detroit in 1964, performs at Wayne State University in Detroit on July 17, 1970. The group began as a fairly typical garage rock band, but evolved into a more politicized band with lyrics that emphasized resistance. They also became a regular fixture at anti-Vietnam War demonstrations, furnishing loud rock music to huge crowds of protesters. They also performed with an aggressive edge and angry style that would later characterize punk bands of the late 1970s and 1980s. (Cue at 2:55)

#can we stop pretending the mass destruction and genocide of Androids would not have been hastened by a violent revolution#'oooh but they're allowed to be violent' i agree with you in principle also accepting the 'violent revolutionary minority' role#categorically changes the political climate (exonerates violence against 'problem' Androids) and relies on mass deviancy which#the US was not *at* yet. in the throes of it maybe but even with months instead of the week it was#the rate of Androids being murdered or shut down...#like i have had this discussion before and been frustrated by people 'BUT IF YOU JUST HEADCANON (things that didn't happen in the game)'#like sure if you invent a story that isn't this story there is A place for it. in a lot of revolutions there is a place for it#in this Particular and Exact environment it would have hastened genocide because the organisation and numbers etc just aren't there#even with a successful final battle outside the camps in Detroit they're literally on US land which has been evacuated of humans#public opinion is so factually important to a social movement's success (this is a fact) and#I Agree i would support them if violent anyway ALSO realistically the support of left wing liberal human- rights-oriented individuals#is not the support that is in jeopardy for Androids at that point#realistically the more moderate less extreme approach bridges the last gap between having some people's support and being seen as nuisances#and YES i think the way it *was* written was unrealistic and lol sooooooo fast in a way it oughtn't have been#and YES i think probably everyone who attended the peaceful demonstration would have been executed realistically speaking#i just think realistically probably most if not all of them would have died in *general* (unceded US land evacuated of humans = target)#and the way to ensure the govt does not shake that off as 'dealt with some rogue violent extremists' (the way ppl love to use the word#as a scare tactic)#way to be sure that cannot happen is to Set The Tone Early#it would be Setting The Tone. it leaves room for it to escalate and i think it probably sh/would HOWEVER#because that particular demonstration was so so so publicised and so nationwide coverage ...#look. the demonstrations would almost definitely have ended in everyone's death but it would have left a path forward which#does not assume the word 'extremist' in the cultural zeitgeist for anyone who wants to mention the fact they are alive.#idk what to tell you#*your* personal opinion of android rights is not at risk you are not in the clear so long as *you* still think their actions are justified#'they shouldn't have to be nonviolent to appeal to -' i love your Shoulds. also they are irrelevant.#the fact is they need that outside support because they are a rapidly growing minority#the fact is the tone needs to be set for people on every side of the political spectrum#'they'll view Androids as idiots!' maybe so but better that than viewing them as extremist outliers who should not be counted.
