The famous anti-slavery token made by the Wedgewood pottery in 1787 entitled 'Am I not a Man and a Brother?' was popular among abolitionists in England. But it would be 1838 before a coin was struck for enslaved women's rights – 'Am I not a Woman and a Sister?' – and then it was made for the American Anti-Slavery Society and popular in America.

English elite women did not feel a sisterhood with women of a lower class or another race. Elite women called for political rights for their own class, not for anyone else. They even used the example of slavery to support their campaign – comparing their inequality to slavery.

12 July
David Douglas, Scottish botanist, for whom the Douglas Fir tree is named, died on this date in 1834 at the age of 35. He fell into an animal trap in Hawaii. It’s not known if he survived the fall, because he was crushed by a wild bull which fell into the trap on top of him.

Journey into Jasperware
This week, Bernadette tells us about a signature style of pottery developed in the late 1700s in "Journey into Jasperware"
Today, let’s talk about a very unique and interesting type of pottery called jasperware. Jasperware is a type of pottery that was developed in the 1770s by Josiah Wedgewood. The pottery is made with an unglazed matte finish and can be made in many colors, but is most recognizable in the signature light blue as seen below. Relief decoration is added to the pottery in a different color which…

Almost every episode of Time Team:
Tony: The geophys results show something EXCITING, what looks like the remains of a stately roman villa that CLEARLY will show the origins of this HISTORIC site
Tony 3 days later: The geophys lied all we have is this piece of fake wedgewood pottery from 1996 and a broken TV aerial. The villa was a latrine. Phil dug a hole deeper than his shoulders and we can’t get him out. Boy that was FUN THOUGH WASN’T IT?

what color is violet’s room
I'd say teal. Though I swear at times it seems an odd shade of periwinkle.
But the precise coloring; I went through past design archives and found out Pottery Barn in 2011 collaborated with Benjamin Moore paints. The set designer, Ellen Brill, has used Benjamin Moore on other projects & has favorited their stuff on Pinterest. That plus paints from that timeline I think may be Violet's bedroom's paint I narrowed down to four.
The possible exact paint color(s):
Benjamin Moore’s “Azores”
Benjamin Moore’s “Buxtom blue”
Benjamin Moore’s “Wedgewood Gray”
Sherwin Williams’ “Interesting Aqua”
Remember that the show's filter makes everything darker for the most part. Bear in mind that different lights (e.g. day light vs artificial light) can change a paint color drastically.
