On 28th January 1971, David Bowie arrived in America for the first time…wearing this dress. He was detained by security for over an hour. These photos were taken in LA in February, by John Mendelsohn. During this trip he met Andy Warhol for the first time. #Bowieforever

Democrats, you don’t have to make your good communicators president! You can just put them in leadership positions. Stop letting the perfect be the enemy of the good.
