Eunice Kennedy Shriver founded the Special Olympics in 1968. What she started as a backyard project grew into a global phenomenon. The first Special Olympics hosted 1,000 athletes in Chicago. Today, it supports millions of athletes across >170 countries She died #OTD in 2009. #SpecialOlympics

A charming photograph of Eunice Kennedy Shriver (1921–2009), the influential founder of the Special Olympics, embracing a smiling young athlete. Shriver stands behind the youth, wrapping her arms forward in a warm, supportive gesture. Her hands rest on the athlete's shoulder, and she holds a gold medal that hangs from a ribbon around the athlete's neck. Shriver has shoulder-length brown hair, and an open, joyous smile revealing her teeth. She wears a thick navy winter jacket with a plum collar showing. The athlete, also smiling broadly toward the camera, wears a brown and white knit beanie and a green hooded sweatshirt. In the blurry background, snowy outdoor slopes and a spectator in winter ski gear indicate a Special Olympics Winter Games setting. The composition emphasizes a strong emotional bond, projecting a triumphant and heartwarming mood that highlights Shriver’s lifelong legacy of fostering inclusion and celebrating athletic achievement for people with intellectual disabilities.

This is still happening. I am grateful that she was released but she should not have been detained to begin with. What other horrors are happening? What about people who are not well known in their communities. We need to stand up for them all.

Graphic novels turn kids into lifelong readers. They challenge readers, transform reluctant readers into readers, they bring joy. They boost vocabulary, increase reading comprehension for brains that take in information differently. They tell a story. Graphic novels are real reading, real books ✨📚😊

because I know y’all can’t click and read

1. "Except in rare circumstances, drowning people are physiologically unable to call out for help. The respiratory system was designed for breathing.
Speech is the secondary or overlaid function.
Breathing must be fulfilled before speech occurs.
2. Drowning people's mouths alternately sink below and reappear above the surface of the water. The mouths of drowning people are not above the surface of the water long enough for them to exhale, inhale, and call out for help. When the drowning people's mouths are above the surface, they exhale and inhale quickly as their mouths start to sink below the surface of the water.
3. Drowning people cannot wave for help. Nature instinctively forces them to extend their arms laterally and press down on the water's surface.
Pressing down on the surface of the water permits drowning people to leverage their bodies so they can lift their mouths out of the water to breathe.
4. Throughout the Instinctive Drowning Response, drowning people cannot voluntarily control their arm movements. Physiologically, drowning people who are struggling on the surface of the water cannot stop drowning and perform voluntary movements such as waving for help, moving toward a rescuer, or reaching out for a piece of rescue equipment.
5. From beginning to end of the Instinctive Drowning Response people's bodies remain upright in the water, with no evidence of a supporting kick. Unless rescued by a trained lifeguard, these drowning people can only struggle on the surface of the water from 20 to 60 seconds before submersion occurs."

This is Lori. She was wandering the streets as a stray when she was hit by a car. It caused her left hind femur to come fully out of her hip socket. She’s in severe discomfort and needs surgery followed by physical therapy to walk pain-free again. You can help her below ❤️‍🩹 1510.fan/lori-bsd

Lori, a small, tan pup with a scruff of white on her chest, is held closely by a person in a black vet scrub. we can tell from Lori's expression she is a bit scared and not sure what to expect.

an x-ray image of Lori's lower torso shows her left hind femur has popped out of her hip socket, the result of being hit by a car.

another angle of Lori, who is lying down inside an exam pillow while her head and hind legs are handled by two vets.
