Bill Withers wrote the song "Ain't No Sunshine" at age 31 while working at a factory, making toilet seats for airplanes. Using his own money, he would record demo tapes and play at various clubs at night. When he debuted with "Ain't No Sunshine", he refused to quit his day job, believing that the music business was a fickle industry. Fortunately for him, the song turned out to be a massive hit. When it went gold, the record company gave him a gold toilet as a gift, marking the start of his new career.

In 1985, at age 47, Bill Withers decided to walk away from it all. He felt that the record companies he worked with were constantly trying to exert more and more control over how he should sound if he wanted to sell more albums. He felt pigeonholed and no longer wanted to be part of the music business. In 2015, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He claimed to have no regrets and provided the following reflection on his later life: "I've always been serious that way, trying to evolve to a more conscious state. Funny thing about that, though. You tweak yourself, looking for more love, less lust, more compassion, less jealousy. You keep tweaking, keep adjusting those k***s until you can no longer find the original settings. In some sense, the original settings are exactly what I'm looking for—a return to the easygoing guy I was before my world got complicated, the nice guy who took things as they came and laughed so hard the blues would blow away in the summer wind."

A Montana man named Darrell “Dusty” Crawford took a DNA test to learn more about his Native American heritage. But what should have been a mundane ancestry test took a turn when the results showed he had America's oldest genetics and challenged the accepted history of how the first Americans came to the continent.

Born Araminta Ross, the daughter of Harriet and Ben Ross, “Minty,” as she was called, was a slave on the eastern shore of Maryland. At about age 22, Minty married John Tubman, who was a free man, and soon thereafter she changed her name to Harriet.
In 1849 Harriet Tubman fled to the north to escape slavery, assisted by local Quakers operating on the Underground Railroad, leaving behind her husband and family. Her father Ben was a “term slave,” who had obtained his freedom at age 45 when Minty was about 18 years old. In 1850 Ben purchased his wife’s freedom. Although her parents were free, many of Harriet’s family members, including her brothers, were not, and they were in constant danger of being “sold south.” It was in order to rescue them that Harriet became a conductor of the Underground Railroad, earning her historical reputation as “the Moses of her people.”
Over the next ten years Harriet made numerous dangerous trips back to Maryland, and escorted dozens of slaves to their freedom, including her brothers. On her second trip she sought out her husband John, only to learn that he had remarried and refused to leave Maryland. (In 1869, Harriet married Nelson Davis, who had been a slave in North Carolina before escaping via the Underground Railroad. Nevertheless, it is by her first married name that she was and continues to be remembered.) In addition to her work on the Underground Railroad, Harriet became a celebrity in abolitionist circles and was a sought-after speaker both before and after the war.
During the Civil War, Harriet traveled with the Federal Army to South Carolina, where she served as a scout and spy, helping to liberate hundreds of slaves, and earning widespread praise and admiration throughout the north for her service.
Harriet and her family lived in a home in Auburn, New York that she had purchased from Senator William Seward in 1859. Denied a military pension, she and her family struggled with poverty in the post-war years. In was during this time that Harriet’s life story was greatly embellished by well-meaning biographers, as they produced books in an effort to raise money to assist her and her family. Although many of the embellishments have survived in the popular imagination (as is the case with many American heroes), they do not diminish the truth of her courage, determination, and heroism.
To the end of her life Harriet Tubman remained a household name and an iconic figure in American culture and society, and her stature has continued to grow since then. In 2008 a poll of American high school students asked them to name the greatest figures from American history, exclusive of presidents. Harriet Tubman was in the top three. In recent years there has been a feature Hollywood film based on her life and she is set to soon replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill.
Harriet Tubman, born Araminta Ross, died in Auburn New York at approximately age 90, on March 10, 1913, one hundred eight years ago today

The birth of Bethany Veney in 1815 is celebrated on this date. She was a Black woman author.

Veney was born a slave in Luray Page County, Virginia; she never met her father and her mother died when she was nine years old. Her master, James Fletcher, willed Veney as the property of his daughter, Lucy when he died. Veney married another slave named Jerry but after a year he managed to escape. In December 1858, Veney and her son Joe were sold for $775 to a man in Rhode Island. She had a daughter by her first husband and a son by her second husband, Frank Veney. She served a number of different masters, and was separated from her family often before being sold to a northern businessman, G.J. Adams, who freed her and her son.

Veney worked for Adams and his family in the North. After living for a short time in Providence, Rhode Island, Veney settled in Worcester, Massachusetts, with her daughter and three grandchildren. After the Civil War she obtained her freedom and in 1889 published her autobiography, A Slave Woman. On November 16, 1916, Bethany Veney, at the age of 103 years, died at the home of her daughter, Charlotte, at 33 Winfield Street in Worcester. It was said that she “retained her faculties, except her eyesight, in a wonderful manner. Her memory was keen, not in the manner of old persons, in remembering dates of long ago, but she kept herself posted on the topics of interest of today and although she could not read because of her eyesight in later years, she kept posted by asking questions.

Veney’s daughter, Charlotte, died on February 14, 1921, at a home that she had moved to since the death of her mother, at 89 Mayfield Street in Worcester. She was buried in Mt. Hope Cemetery near her mother. On July 12, 2003, the Governor of Massachusetts, Mitt Romney, signed a proclamation honoring Bethany Veney and her life by declaring the day “Bethany Veney Day in Worcester, Massachusetts.

In 1893, Frederick Douglass invited Ida B. Wells to lunch. She noted a place across the street, but indicated they would not receive service there. “Mr. Douglass, in his vigorous way, grasped my arm and said, ‘Come, let’s go there.’” Together, they “sauntered in...as if it were an everyday occurrence, cocked and primed for the fight if necessary.” Douglass grabbed a table and chair for him and Wells, as “paralyzed” staff looked on. A stand-off ensued with wait staff until the proprietor realized it was Frederick Douglass, and warmly welcomed him while sharing stories of a time past when Douglass visited his hometown. “When [the proprietor] finally went to another part of the room, Mr. Douglass turned to me with a roguish look and said, ‘Ida, I thought you said that they didn’t serve us here. It seems we are getting more attention than we want.’”

Frederick Douglass spent his life fighting for justice and equality. He never knew the date of his birth. This is something he struggled with throughout his lifetime. Douglass believed that he was born in the month of February in 1817. In fact, records show that Douglass was born in February of 1818. He chose the 14th of February for his birthday because his mother would call him her “little Valentine." Unfortunately, Douglass never knew much about his parentage. His mother, Harriet, was sold off when Douglass was but a child, and he only met her a few times before she passed away. Though born enslaved in Maryland, he escaped as a young man and became a leading voice in the abolitionist movement.

Natives were aware of how important it was to prevent inbreeding to keep their dogs healthy. In order to prevent this, the tribes would introduce new blood from other tribe's dogs which accounted for the many types of dogs that were often portrayed in history books.
The northern tribes developed a dog with more of a wolf like appearance while in the western regions the smaller Plains dog was developed. These dogs were very intelligent and versatile as they were expected to fill many roles in the village. In some tribes, dogs pulled a travois carrying the nomadic family’s belongings as they followed their food supply. Dogs were used to hunt for food and as faithful and protective watch dogs over the village. They were even reliable as “babysitters” for the children and elderly when the women were gathering roots, berries and herbs. In certain tribes ,some of the dogs even played important roles in the tribes’ religious ceremonies.
Scientists say the "black wolves" are actually the earliest Native dogs. The black fur of some North American wolves is the result of long-ago dalliances with domestic dogs, probably the companions of the earliest Natives.

As Comanches were seen and highly regarded as outstanding horsemen, they were also observed by other people to have a copper-color about their skin with black eyes and hair. Comanches were well-built and seemingly of medium height. The men possessed just a little bit of facial hair but had a very prominent nose. They wore buckskin moccasins, leggings, and a breech clout. In colder times, a blanket or a bison robe would be worn over the man's shoulders.
With regard to adornments worn by young men, the Comanche elder Frank Chekovi related that pierced ears were sought after when an individual wanted to dress up.
The young man went to the tipi of an experienced person who knew how to pierce. One very red-hot needle was used. A greased straw was placed in the hole once it had been pierced. If more than one hole was desired on an ear, they were all done at the same time in order to properly heal. For instance, some young men liked shell beads and others rings that were worn along the edge of an ear. Copper wire bands could be worn about the wrist and the ear decorations on men were commonplace.
A remarkable picture of the graceful Minnie Too-sh-pip-pen and the very handsome Slim Tiebo, circa 1900. The Comanche Slim Tiebo would have been around twenty years of age. He was born in 1880 and passed away in 1952. The prominent Comanche Tiebo farmed his land and lived his entire life in the area of Cache, Oklahoma. He is buried at the Post Oak Cemetery, Indiahoma, Oklahoma. Photograph courtesy of the Denver Public Library, Denver, Colorado
