`A public hanging`


Public executions were not only legal but also a form of entertainment for people across the globe. The United States decided to put a stop to these macabre gatherings in 1936. The last person hanged in the U.S. was Rainey Bethea on August 14, 1936, after having confessed to the rape and murder of a 70-year old woman named Lischia Edwards.

`The Three Stooges out of character `


Pictured here is the legendary slapstick team known as The Three Stooges, out of character, Moe Howard’s real name was Moses Horwitz. Larry Fine was born Louis Fienberg, Curly Howard’s real name was Jerome Lester Horwitz.
The Three Stooges were an American vaudeville and comedy team between 1928 and 1970. They rose to fame during the Great Depression and are still considered one of the most popular comedy acts of the 20th century. The Great Depression was the darkest time in American history and the Stooges was able to help people crack a smile even though the world was falling deeper into despair. `

`Children praying in public school`



This photograph was taken in a public school back in 1962 during the case for Engel v. Vitale, 370 U.S. 421. The issue was whether prayer in public schools was in violation of the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. As we all know now, prayer is no longer apart of daily activities in public schools.
Reactions were (and still are) unsurprisingly negative, many school districts and entire states have tried to reestablish some form of school-sponsored prayer. Since the 1990s its tended to revolve around prayer at school-sponsored extracurricular activities. Which you'd think would be okay since they are after school and on a volunteer basis but they were denied. Other attempts have included prayer at graduation ceremonies and prior to high school sports games, all of which were ruled unconstitutional.`
