My Day Job

As you know this site has been a bit slow recently and as you know this is because I now have a day job.  That job is working for the Internet Archive scanning old books that are now in the public domain so that anyone can download them forever.  I have gotten pretty good at it if the books don’t suck.  I scanned 4300 pages today.  Anyway I wanted to show you guys my little library.  You can click this link and look at all the books I have ever scanned.  Updated daily.

Anyway, the last cart of books we did had all these insanely racist old books with titles like “The Negro Problem” and “The Black Shadow And The Red Death“.  The later is a religious attack on the blacks and latinos in America at the turn of the century.  The book calls the Chinese “Coolies” and refers constantly to “Huns”.  It is so insanely fucked up.

    Thank you for posting this. It is part of our historical past that can’t be ignored. While is is fucked up it is important for people to see that it was not that long ago and many still think this way.
