@KylaWatts [name pseudonymized] [ontology] [02]: @GBNEWS @mrmarkdolan Kneeling for justice is a decades old gesture, which is a wonderful demonstration of inclusivity used to great affect by the England football team. Who, in their right mind, would not support such an expression towards mankind at an event of such magnitude. #England #MLK #woke [URL redacted]

Context "The image, taken in 1965, shows King leading a prayer after a group of protesters were arrested during a march to the Dallas County Alabama courthouse. Around 250 people were arrested during the demonstration, which was part of a push to get African Americans in Selma registered to vote. Among those praying with King is Ralph Abernathy, a fellow minister and leader of the Civil Rights movement." https://time.com/4955717/trump-protests-mlk-martin-luther-king-kneeling/ #1965_ #CauseCivilRightsMovement

Supplementary #1965_VotingRightsAct i.e. "This act was signed into law on August 6, 1965, by President Lyndon Johnson. It outlawed the discriminatory voting practices adopted in many southern states after the Civil War, including literacy tests as a prerequisite to voting. This 'act to enforce the fifteenth amendment to the Constitution' was signed into law 95 years after the amendment was ratified. In those years, African Americans in the South faced tremendous obstacles to voting, including poll taxes, literacy tests, and other bureaucratic restrictions to deny them the right to vote. They also risked harassment, intimidation, economic reprisals, and physical violence when they tried to register or vote. As a result, African-American voter registration was limited, along with political power. In 1964, numerous peaceful demonstrations were organized by Civil Rights leaders, and the considerable violence they were met with brought renewed attention to the issue of voting rights. The murder of voting-rights activists in Mississippi and the attack by white state troopers on peaceful marchers in Selma, Alabama, gained national attention and persuaded President Johnson and Congress to initiate meaningful and effective national voting rights legislation. The combination of public revulsion to the violence and Johnson's political skills stimulated Congress to pass the voting rights bill on August 5, 1965."

Buckley, Jr., and liberal writer Gore Vidal. It was hoped that these two members of opposing intellectual elites would show Americans living through tumultuous times that political disagreements could be civilized. That idea did not last for long. Instead Buckley and Vidal descended rapidly into name-calling. Afterward, they sued each other for defamation. ... On the whole, the research shows, conservatives desire security, predictability and authority more than liberals do, and liberals are more comfortable with novelty, nuance and complexity. If you had put Buckley and Vidal in a magnetic resonance imaging machine and presented them with identical images, you would likely have seen differences in their brain, especially in the areas that process social and emotional information. The volume of gray matter, or neural cell bodies, making up the anterior cingulate cortex, an area that helps detect errors and resolve conflicts, tends to be larger in liberals. And the amygdala, which is important for regulating emotions and evaluating threats, is larger in conservatives." https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/conservative-and-liberal-brains-might-have-some-real-differences/ #MetaphorVersusConservativesLiberals #TheoryAffectiveResponseAmygdalaHijack

"conservatives and liberals tend to display different personality profiles, and even facial features. In addition, political ideology is related to differences in cognitive styles (e.g., need for closure, structure, and order). For instance, conservatives show greater neurocognitive sensitivity to changes in habitual patterns of response, tend to more rigidly organize their living and working spaces, and express preferences for simple and easily interpretable pieces of art, whereas liberals display more integrative complexity and tolerance of ambiguity."

"White dominant culture describes how white people and their practices, beliefs, and culture have been normalized over time and are now considered standard in the United States.
