HistoryPhotos is for photographs (or, if it can be found, film) of the past, recent or distant! Give us a little snapshot of history!

Rules

  1. Be respectful and inclusive.
  2. No harassment, hate speech, or trolling.
  3. Foster a continuous learning environment.
  4. No genocide or atrocity denialism.
  5. Photos MUST be at LEAST 10 years old, and ideally over 20. We appreciate that we are living through events which will become history, but this is ultimately not a comm for news or current affairs, but events which have occurred some time in the past.

Edited for you sir, the dyslexia and spell assist has gotten one once again.

That makes sense!

Although I don't think I'd prefer the America of 1961 to today

I feel like we've come a long way in regard to civil rights since then, even with recent backsliding XD
