OTD in 1863, the Conscription Act takes effect, precipitating the #DraftRiots, the worst civil unrest in U.S. history. Our neighborhoods, with large #AfricanAmerican+ #immigrant populations, were the scene of much of the violence: https://t.co/29JybwmKSB #neverforget #darkchapter
Crucial to remember Milton Glaser's artistic work with @WHO, where Jonathan Mann worked with Glaser to draw attention — in evocative images — to the rising threat of #AIDS. Did this imagery undercut Mann's focus on #HumanRights for #LGBTQ populations?

PTSD as a diagnosis is relatively new, but trauma from serving in war zones has been observed in historical military populations.
In the #FWW, for instance, war trauma was described as 'war neurosis' or 'shell shock'.

Oceanic whitetips are thought to have once been the most abundant pelagic shark in the oceans. However due to the pressures of commercial fishing their populations have suffered huge declines. Open ocean #marineprotectedareas #MPAs are essential for healthy #shark populations.
repost for #WorldOtterDay! tho the Japanese River Otter i’ve illustrated is extinct, there are otters in Japan that still need our help, brought in via the exotic pet trade. these otters rarely receive the care they need, and the trade has caused declines in wild populations. 1/2
populations down to species level as well as combat illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing. The future of our beloved gliders of the sea depend on it.

This weeks #SundayFishSketch is a jaw tagged largemouth #bass! We have been tagging these #fish and working with #anglers in a central #Iowa lake for 5 yrs to learn more about factors influencing their populations. Let us know if you catch one! @bassmaster @iowadnr #FishIowa
As so many things still remain unknown about the spotted eagle ray, the photo identification might be able to be used to gather more data on the populations of these beautiful animals!

The Allis Shad (Alosa alosa) is a northeastern Atlantic #fish that migrates up rivers to spawn. Its populations have been reducing due to overfishing, pollution and habitat loss, specially estuaries, where juveniles live #SundayFishSketch #scicomm #SciArt
Flamus live in grasslands that are fireproof, but if their populations spill out into other environments, they can cause wildfire problems.
Eva worked there every evening, allowing her time to paint during the day. For the next 6 years she painted and sketched her fellow waitresses and waiters, the chefs, porters and customers, depicting the incredibly diverse immigrant populations of 1950’s Whitechapel
#FaunaFocus At one time, Tasmanian devils were in danger of extinction due to persecution by settlers and destruction of forest habitat, but populations have since stabilized due to protective laws.
