As today, February 20th, is recognised as the World Day of Social Justice, we felt that it would be more than fitting to acknowledge one of the most important leaders for the civil rights movement in the 19th century- Frederick Douglass. He was the leader of the abolitionist movement and a suffragist who devoted his life to social justice. Unfortunately, today also marks the anniversary of his passing. On February 20th, 1895, he died of a heart attack shortly after attending a meeting of the National Council of Women in Washington D.C. He was later buried at Mount Hope Cemetery in Rochester, New York, where he had lived for over twenty years. But, did you know that Frederick Douglass also lived in Scotland? He lived right here in Edinburgh, while travelling extensively across the United Kingdom in hopes of gathering more support for his abolitionist cause. Walter and Arthur are commemorating this day by posing in front of the plaque in the town of Hawick in the Scottish Borders. It was near this site that Frederick Douglass addressed the people of Hawick about the immorality of slavery on November 2nd, 1846. "Without a struggle, there can be no progress." ~ Frederick Douglass

Tomorrow morning, Sunday, #MyKindofTown* is back on #BBC2 at 9am with a double episode.
People across the #UK can watch and get to know two cracking #Scottish towns.
This week it’s #Wick and #Hawick.
Our intrepid Golden Retriever explorers, Arthur (on the left) and Walter (on the right), pose at the Elliot Bandstand in Wilton Lodge Park in Hawick, Scotland. The bandstand has beautiful blue and gold colours. The setting sun in the background adds a beautiful warm gold hue of its own.
Calming and loving greetings from Hawick- and a wee escape from the madness of Black Friday!

The Borders Distillery in Hawick. The image shows the interior of the still room with a line of four stills extending from near right to far left. They are glowing bright orange in sunlight coming through the glass roof. A line of condensers is off to the right of the stills.
When it opened in 2018, the Borders Distillery in Hawick became the first (legal) whisky distillery in the Scottish Borders since 1837. It comes complete with the most visually impressive still room we've seen. More pics and info: www.undiscoveredscot...
