RIP Graham Greene. A great actor who represented First Nations on screen. His illustrious career went far beyond Dances with Wolves. www.npr.org/2025/09/02/n...
Oscar-nominated actor Graham Greene, of 'Dances With Wolves,' dies at 73
One of the most respected Indigenous actors of his generation, Greene appeared in more than 200 television shows and movies. He played a Lakota warrior in the 1990 blockbuster Dances With Wolves.

1 like = 1 line from H. P. Lovecraft's letter to August Derleth, 9 Sep 1931

There are some words I'll have to censor to this letter, if we get to them. You'll see why, if we get there.

0: Dear A W:—
Tempted to do a post on one of Lovecraft's more contentious letters on race, just for shits and giggles and to wax on the historical context.

I was out with my family yesterday, but I didn't forget that 9/1 was the birthday of Edgar Rice Burroughs, creator of Tarzan, John Carter, Pelucidar, and my personal favorite Kaspak. The island debuted in THE LAND THAT TIME FORGOT. The film starring Doug McClure was a childhood favorite of mine.
