Rust & Dirt
@rustanddirt.bsky.social
A public history project. Exploring the history, culture, and everyday life of rust belt and rural NW Pennsylvania.
The movie is currently filming in New Jersey (😐), meaning Erieites are going to take detailed notes on everything they get wrong about our city down to the street names. No word yet on who from the reported cast is playing FBI Agent Jerry Clark (but I’m assuming it’s Garret Dillahunt). #TrueCrime

Due to Lee’s increasing civil rights activism & connection to progressive causes, he soon found himself the target of anti-communist hysteria & with the FBI's investigation of him, he was blacklisted. When asked to identify a friend as a communist to drop the blacklisting, Lee refused. #history

After nearly 100 professional matches, Canada Lee hung up his gloves. He dabbled as a bandleader, traveling from club to club, before in 1934, stumbling upon something new: the stage. In 1936, he was cast by Orson Welles as Banquo in an extremely successful production of Macbeth. #acting #history
