A New York father of a nine-year-old who moved his family to Florida after he had blasted a private New York school for allegedly teaching his daughter Critical Race Theory told Fox News regarding Florida schools, “These schools never heard of Critical Race Theory, they don’t teach the Critical Race Theory. They don’t know about it.”
Harvey Goldman added to Fox News host Tucker Carlson, “These children go to a park and they want to play. They don’t care what color the other kids are. They care that they’re having fun.”

Founded on the banks of the Hau River, Long Xuyen began as a trading post and has prospered into one of the Mekong Delta’s major cities today.
The land that is now Long Xuyen was among the last unexplored regions of southwestern Vietnam, according to research by academic Phan Văn Kiến. In 1789, in order to protect the area from raids by Siam and Chenla forces, the then-Nguyen Lord established a small outpost called Dong Xuyen.
The post grew into a small township by the era of Tu Duc Emperor (mid-19th century) with the local Dong Xuyen Market turning into a bustling commercial hub. When the French seized control of southern Vietnam, the market was renamed Long Xuyen.
A reservoir next to the Hau River. It's now part of Nguyen Du Park in Long Xuyen City.
In 1868, the French administration divided An Giang Province into five arrondissements (hạt tham biện in Vietnamese) — a French administrative unit similar to a district. One of them was named after the market, and the district later grew into the city we know today.
The black-and-white images in this collection were taken by an unnamed photographer commissioned by the French administration to document life in its then-territories.

President Jefferson Davis’ message to the Third Session of the Provisional Congress of the Confederate States at Richmond, Virginia, July 20, 1861 (excerpts):
“Commencing in March last, with an affectation of ignoring the secession of the seven States which first organized this Government; persisting in April in the idle and absurd assumption of the existence of a riot which was to be dispersed by a posse comitatus; continuing in successive months the false representation that these States intended offensive war, in spite of conclusive evidence to the contrary . . . the President of the United States and his advisors have succeeded in deceiving the people of those States into the belief that the purpose of [the Confederate] Government was not peace at home, but conquest abroad; not the defense of its own liberties, but the subversion of those of the people of the United States.”
