We at HistoryColored have decided to curate 50 interesting, rare and iconic photos from history. There are many reasons why a photograph may be featured on this list. Some of the reasons include: it was the first time something was ever captured on camera, it shows a famous figure from history, the image depicts an important historical event, it is a “rare” photo that does not get shared as much as it should, or it is an “iconic” historical photo. It may not fall under any of these categories but can still be featured in this list for a different reason.
These photographs are in no particular order. They have been curated and added to the list over a long period of time, so no decision was taken on how they should be ordered. Be sure to take the time to check out every historical photograph featured on this list!

Embracing Inclusivity in Collegiate Sports
In a recent interview with Sports Illustrated, collegiate swimmer Lia Thomas bravely expressed, “I am a woman, just like anybody else on the team.” While Lia’s gender identity may differ from her teammates, it is crucial to foster an atmosphere of inclusivity and respect within collegiate sports. Let’s explore this topic further and understand the importance of embracing diversity.
It’s understandable that some may question Lia’s gender identity due to biological differences. However, it’s vital to remember that everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and acceptance. Transgender individuals, like Lia, have faced long-standing challenges in society, and it is our duty to create an environment where they can compete and thrive without prejudice.
Lia’s courage in claiming her identity as a woman sheds light on the broader issue of entitlement that transgender individuals often encounter. While the transgender rights movement initially sought acceptance and equality, it is unfortunate that the discourse has shifted towards privilege and precedence. However, it is essential to separate these debates from the overarching goal of combating discrimination and ensuring civil rights for all individuals.
Transgender individuals, including Lia, should not face harassment or discrimination. At the same time, it is crucial to strike a balance that upholds social standards and respects scientific knowledge. We must honor the diversity of gender identities while maintaining the understanding of the biological expectations traditionally associated with female athletes.
As we navigate these discussions, it is essential to foster understanding and empathy. Disagreements should be handled with respect and open dialogue. Demonizing anyone who disagrees only hinders progress and creates division within society. Instead, we should strive for equality, inclusivity, and respect for every individual, regardless of their gender identity.
Let us work together to create a collegiate sports environment that celebrates diversity and provides equal opportunities for all athletes. By embracing inclusivity and challenging outdated norms, we can build a better, more accepting future.
