Our Personal Narratives Often Ignore Facts
2010-07-30 | Filed Under SteveG's Posts |
Leonard Pitts Jr. of The Miami Herald has written the commentary Our Personal Narratives Often Ignore Facts.
Ten years ago, Arthur Teitelbaum, then an official of the Anti-Defamation League, wrote in another context:
Beware the moments when facts seem to confirm prejudices. Such times are traps, when the well-meaning are misled and the mean-spirited gain confidence.
Guilty as charged. That is what my blog posts are all about. Once or twice I have posted something that disproves one of my prejudices. I can’t think of which post that is, but I know there is one.
