1277 — Battle of Desio
The Battle of Desio was fought on 21 January 1277 between the Della Torre and Visconti families for the control of Milan and its countryside. The battlefield was located near the modern Desio, a commune outside the city in Lombardy, Northern Italy. Although generally considered one of the numerous minor battles fought in the 13th century in Italy during the Wars of the Guelphs and Ghibellines, it was in fact the conclusion of a long inner struggle for the possession of Milan, leading to the transformation of the former democratic regime into an aristocratic signoria.

1936 — Louisiana gubernatorial election, 1936
The Louisiana gubernatorial election of 1936 was held on January 21, 1936. Like most Southern states between Reconstruction and the civil rights era, Louisiana's Republican Party was virtually nonexistent in terms of electoral support. This meant that the Democratic Party primary held on this date was the real contest over who would be governor. The election resulted in the victory of Richard W. Leche of New Orleans as governor. Leche was supported by the Longite faction of the party and Cleveland Dear of Alexandria by the anti-Longs' "Home Rule" ticket.

1986 — 1985–1986 Dartmouth College anti-apartheid protests
Beginning in 1985, student activists at Dartmouth College, a private university in Hanover, New Hampshire, protested against the university's policy of investing in companies that operated in South Africa. The protests were part of a wider anti-apartheid movement in the United States that sought to disinvest from South Africa in protest against the country's policy of apartheid. In November 1985, an activist group called the Dartmouth Committee for Divestment (DCD) erected a shanty town on the Green in order to draw attention to the poor living conditions experienced by black people in South Africa. While university administrators initially called for the shanties to be removed from the Green, University President David T. McLaughlin stated that the shanties could remain so long as they served "an educational purpose". Over the next several months, the shanties remained while the DCD continued to push for full divestment from companies doing business in South Africa. On January 21, 1986, a group consisting of several staff members of The Dartmouth Review—a conservative student publication—attacked the shanty town in an effort to destroy and remove the structures from the Green.
