Ya tocaba hablar de LA HISTORIA DE LAS REDES LIBRES

Mañana sábado a las 12:00 in the morning como siempre en https://www.twitch.tv/56knews

Hablaremos de oleadas anteriores a la era Elon Musk y de como una red federada como la que habitamos puede dispararse en meses a algo que jamás podíamos haber imaginado.

¿Estamos preparadas? #fediverse #fediverso #mastodon #history #historia

94 yrs ago, over 1,000 striking banana workers were gunned down while picketing outside the gates of the United Fruit Company (Chiquita) in Santa Marta, Colombia.

The strikers' demands included a 6-day work week, payment with money rather than company coupons, compensation for work accidents, and a wage increase for workers earning less than 100 pesos/month.

U.S. Ambassador Jefferson Caffery later told Washington he was "honored" to report the massacre.

"Dido", a commissioned illustration of the legendary founder and queen of Carthage. I enjoyed researching artifacts and styles from Phoenician culture - lots of Greek, Syrian, Egyptian and other influences.
Also note the reference to the Trojan war in the wall paintings! #mastoart #history
