As to the ongoing encyclopedic historiography project, comparing the 1965 and 1995 editions of the World Book, can't help but notice the Western bias and implied white supremacy again in the former's M volume, a couple examples being the Morocco article --
perhaps a little "mine-is-much-bigger-than-yours",
an implication that European-American-stule appartments is an improvement over "windowless" traditional (the which, of course, naturally insulate against externat temperatures, being more energy-efficial),
no particular problem with Europe's incursions into this northwestern quadrant of Africa (OK, the opposite was true in Medieval-Renaissance times), and
somewhat of an indifference to the country's natural beauty --
also a little sardonic to visualize Byzantine mosaics soley with a depiction of The Drunkenness of Noah (but, gotta admit, a great story), and the
the article on Montgomery, Alabama, whose last sentence reads
"in 1956, Montgomery became one of the first Southern cities officially to abolish racial segregation on public busses."
Well, no mention that the city had tried just about everything to prevent this, and it was only due to the courage of those such as
Claudette Colvin (b. 1939),
Rosa Parks (1913-2005), and so many others that the city was finally forced to make ammends -- and this was not without considerable backlash thereafter... This merits more civil rights review, including the grizzly, horrible history of lynchings (burning, dismembering, dragging, hanging...) that really continue to the present day,
which, astoundingly to date, have not been outlawed by any national law...
Symbols of racial preference remain all around us, right down to the white girl on the raisin box, and questioning what's up with all the Western-Christendom in the writer's creative output...
Difficult issues to ponder,

Yellowstone,

via this latter --
