SMALL TALK
ON THIS DATE: In 1892, Francisco Franco, who later led Nationalist forces in the Spanish Civil War and was dictator of Spain for more than 35 years until his death, was born. In 1918, President Woodrow Wilson departed for France to attend the Paris Peace Conference, where, following the cessation of hostilities in World War I, the League of Nations was established and the Treaty of Versailles was drafted. In 1969, civil rights leader Fred Hampton, a charismatic member of the Black Panthers, was shot and killed during a police raid in Chicago; his death caused public outrage, and the ensuing investigations brought greater scrutiny of the FBI’s attempts to dismantle the Panthers and other Black organizations. In 1970, rapper and entrepreneur Shawn Carter, now known as Jay-Z, one of the most influential figures in hip-hop in the 1990s and early 2000s, was born. In 1980, several months after the death of drummer John Bonham, the British rock band Led Zeppelin announced that it was officially disbanding; the group later re-formed for short one-off performances on several occasions. In 1996, the unmanned space vehicle Mars Pathfinder was launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida, in order to explore the surface of Mars. In 2000, Surinamese politician Henck Arron, who helped Suriname gain its independence from the Netherlands and served as prime minister until being overthrown by the military, died at age 64.
