Richard Peary and Matthew Henson

Looking through National Geographic, I found some interesting information about the real life Richard or is it Robert the Explorer and Matthew Henson.

In the context of with its racial and respectability overtones, it was interesting to see Matthew Henson look black, and that they both had Eskimo lovers.

There's a picture of Eskimo women prancing in a line together. And these.


I saw these pictures at Greg's house, attempting to get my plumbing fixed in between ourselves for focus. No, Footloose.
