“The 1” is mostly about the situation around the lawsuit she won against that pervert who grabbed her ass. Isn’t it??

WHAT WAS THE REASON

Yes! 🌈
Taylor Swift has done more for media literacy than any other musical artist ever. Her active encouragement of fan analysis, her deliberate inclusion of layered hidden meaning within her work, her intentional self-referentialism, reflection and reinterpretation, her lyrics that lean heavily towards satire and playfully subverting expectation……. the last few years of her career have been littered with proof that she is pushing an educational agenda. She is asking people to actively question the stories they used to internalise without second thought, including narratives and themes she once wrote but no longer agrees with. She is a media studies professor hidden within the world of pop music, actively encouraging the general public to dissect the media they consume, the messages they receive and the politics behind them……… the fact of the matter is that if Taylor Swift were a man, we would be discussing her effect not only as a famous singer-songwriter, but as a public intellectual presenting a body of artistic work with a deliberate focus on media literacy

Nope. No. You’re wrong. Color photos have been around since the late 1800s there are a bunch of full color photos of MLK. The us govt and educational system just doesn’t show us because they want us to push back the civil rights movement and distance institutionalized racism from today’s society.
Here are just a few of many photos of MLK in FULL color. This wasn’t that long ago. This is RECENT history. Segregation, the terrorizing of black communities, the brutality isn’t old - it is still present.
When my dad was a little boy, my grandfather was one of the ministers who marched with MLK on Washington. He grew up hearing stories about the great Dr. king and the differences he made BUT he still saw the blatant discrimination against black folks and other people of color (hell he experienced it himself). My dad was a kid watching MLK. My DAD. My grandfather who only passed away about six years ago MARCHED with him. This isn’t twelve generations ago. THIS IS RECENT HISTORY.

“This is precisely the time when artists go to work. There is no time for despair, no place for self-pity, no need for silence, no room for fear. We speak, we write, we do language. That is how civilizations heal.”
— Toni Morrison, “No Place for Self-Pity, No Room for Fear,” published in The Nation
