It's a while since I've had one of these, and not in response to anything specific - I've been very inactive on #WesternSahara lately. Must be a quiet day on a troll farm somewhere in #Morocco. 
Anyway, I have a rule that whenever I'm trolled by agents of the #Moroccan state, I post photos of the Sahrawi controlled areas of #WesternSahara, to highlight the conflict & #Morocco's partition of this non-self-governing territory. Here's the view from Tin Gfuf, Southern Sector
A low granite outcrop, near Tin Gfuf, Southern Sector of the Polisario controlled Liberated Territories of #WesternSahara.

On 23Dec.1947,Stalin signed a resolution by the Council of Ministers of the USSR on the resettlement of Azerbaijani kolkhoz members and other Azerbaijanis from the Armenian SSR to the lowlands of the Kur & Araz rivers.On 10Mar.1948,a further resolution on resettlement was signed.
Textual study of the #resolutions by the Council of Ministers of the #USSR shows that they had complete disregard for #human and civil #rights. #Azerbaijanis were removed, not from certain territories, as stated, but from the whole of #Armenia.
It becomes clear that the aim was to oust all #Azerbaijanis from #Armenia. According to the last, 11th, Article of the #resolution dated 23 December 1947, it was intended to settle foreign #Armenians in Armenia in place of the deported #Azerbaijanis.

#Archaeology31 day 2, #future, offers a great chance to highlight a topic I found particularly interesting as of late:
How will an #ArchaeologyOfTheFuture look like - What do *we* leave behind for future colleagues?

@NoLongerIgnored @JosephJFlynn1 @flynn_neill @GenFlynn @BarbaraRedgate @GoJackFlynn @lofly727 @76LibertyWatch When Bolsheviks first started staging their ārebellionsā in Russia, they were viewed as nothing more than petty criminals. It took no time for police to round them up and imprison/execute those involved. That was exactly what their socialist handlers wanted./1
@NoLongerIgnored @JosephJFlynn1 @flynn_neill @GenFlynn @BarbaraRedgate @GoJackFlynn @lofly727 @76LibertyWatch Now not only did they have rebels, they had martyrs to help recruit their target demographic: higher income university students. These kids, away from parental supervision, w/ ample time & money, swallowed the idea of participating in a ārebellion.ā Sound familiar?/2
@NoLongerIgnored @JosephJFlynn1 @flynn_neill @GenFlynn @BarbaraRedgate @GoJackFlynn @lofly727 @76LibertyWatch Iām a grad student & Iām hearing the same things I heard before, only translated into English. āIncome inequality,ā āfair share,ā we had to make posters w/ this terminology. The educated upper class financed & produced the propaganda. The poor were illiterate & busy working./3
All #@ASIGoI protected monuments including #TajMahal, which was shut down on March 17, to be open from #June8. @timesofindia @shady2k8 @sthakurtweets @Benarasiyaa @pra0902
#UPDATE: However, #TajMahalās #mosque and 34 other such mosques in Agra, which is amongst the list of #monuments announced for opening, will remain #shut. In fact all #religious place in #Agra will remain shut for public, as per district administrationās decision.
The real heroes who deserve to be celebrated are the skilled crafts communities integral to #preservation #conservation of #heritage #sites #monuments and #museums across the world. These are photos from the #NalandaUniversity, a #UNESCO #WorldHeritageSite in #Bihar in 2013
Here, when we had gone on a research trip as the Bihar Museum #design team, we had found #craftsmen making bricks and sculptures to help in the restoration of the 1500 year old site. We thought this was extremely imp as the process was similar
I had suggested that this process be filmed and displayed as part of ācontinuing traditionsā in the new Museum. Thankfully, this was accepted and a film has been made š

Thank you the real heroes, we salute you for your skill and hard work, not just today but everyday šš½

1/ THREAD Some thoughts on the recent podcast from @CheatsMovement with @LevarStoney, specifically the mayor's comments related to #monuments and #warmemorials in #Richmond:
2/ Straight to late in the episode when Cheats mentions the recent meeting between the mayor and Mitch Landrieu @MayorLandrieu in #Richmond @VirginiaMuseum (on 3/19). "Did you learn anything talking to Mitch Landrieu about monuments?," Cheats asks (35:56 into the stream).
3/ Stoney's response at 36:35: "There are going to be some lonely, dark times when you do big things that change the fabric of any community..."
