When I see … let’s say … tech-incompetent and less-englightened relatives joining telegram, I can’t help thinking they’re looking for drugs #preconceptions
You do realize that when you think of the events and people of the first half of the 1900s, you think in B&W, right? World War I... Theodore Roosevelt… By the same token, you think of the old west and the US Civil War in1800s in sepia tones. President Lincoln?
These times weren't B&W or sepia toned. Pictures like this one from 1913 prove it. It's revelatory if you give yourself a few moments to think about it.
This is how your mental context "colors" your conceptions of events. Depending on the emotions you apply to those preconceptions, you end up with prejudice. This is how the human mind works, for good or bad. Only self-knowledge allows you to act ethically and morally—to see color when looking at B&W.
