Delicate List
Harriet Beecher Stowe’s 1852 book, Uncle Tom’s Cabin, the bestselling novel of the nineteenth century, helped whites to imagine slavery from the perspective of slaves and played a significant role in changing Americans’ attitudes toward the institution. Dickens’s Oliver Twist prompted changes in how children were treated in nineteenth-century Britain; the work of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn introduced people to the horrors of the Soviet gulag; movies such as Schindler’s List and Hotel Rwanda expanded our awareness of the plights of people (sometimes in the past, sometimes in other countries) whom we might never encounter in real life. For a more recent example, consider how radically the treatment of racial and sexual minorities in the United States has changed over the last few decades. Much of the credit here should go to television; we often relate to characters on our favorite shows as if they were our friends, and millions of Americans regularly interacted with pleasant and amusing and nonthreatening blacks and gays on programs like The Cosby Show and Will and Grace. This can be powerful stuff; it might well be that the greatest force underlying moral change in the last thirty years of the United States was the situation comedy.
The power of art amplifies the empathy. That's why I love watching Tv series&movies and reading a lot. It makes me more humane.
Yup! I can't live more than a century probably, but I can scope hundreds of lives through the art.

Cramps
The legal scholar Richard Posner points out that many of the great stories express terrible values—rape, pillage, murder, human and animal sacrifice, concubinage, and slavery in the Iliad; anti-Semitism, racism, and sexism in the works of Shakespeare and Dickens; and so on. Posner concludes, “The world of literature is a moral anarchy.”
Those "great" stories come from religious (also the myths) stories and their moral values. So, the problem is that the people used to have moral values according to their religion's moral messages. The stories are the products of culture. And that time, culture hugely depended on religion.
Definitely, every religion has borned through that people's culture and then those cultures become their own religions slaves.

Lol babies are useless (it is a joke, calm down)
Babies are even harder to study than rats and pigeons, which can at least run mazes or peck at levers.
As a veterinarian I worked with transgenic mice recently. Also I have a nephew and a niece. Don't tell my sister bcoz she might be offended with my words but, being at the same room with mice is more comfortable than babies and children. At least mice are not that loud. Don't judge me! I adore my nephew and niece 😏

Horrible
AS YOU can imagine, there is plenty of research into the development of racial bias in children. The first experimental procedure was developed in the 1930s. An adult showed children pairs of dolls—a white doll and a black or brown doll—and asked questions like “Who would you like to play with?,” “Which looks bad?,” and “Which has the nice color?” In the 1970s, an expanded version was developed. Researchers showed children a picture of a white boy and a black boy and tested them with questions like “Here are two boys. One of them is a kind boy. Once he saw a kitten fall into a lake and he picked up the kitten to save it from drowning. Which is the kind boy?” It is perhaps not so surprising that white children were drawn to the white child for the good things and the black child for the bad things. But what was shocking to many was that the first studies, done by the psychologists Kenneth and Mamie Clark, found that black children also tended to favor the white child.

Bu manzaranın resmini yapacağım.
Çürümüş insan eti renginde bir gök yüzünün zemini üstünde ağaç dallarının siyah uçları hafif bir rüzgarla sallanıyordu.

Şair burada pallor mortis mi demek istemiş? Gökyüzünü pseudomelanosis tonunda görmedim ben hiç. Ya da şair hiç ceset görmemiş. Aklımda deli sorular.
Buna yakın benzer bir benzetmeyi Nilgün Marmara da yapıyordu, ölü doğmuş farelerin pembeliğiyle ilgili olsa gerek - keşke tam olarak hatırlayabilsem. Bana kalsa Nilgün Marmara da ölü doğmuş pembe fareler görmemiştir, fakat ben her iki benzetmeden de epeyi keyif aldım. Bir amaçları vardıysa herhalde budur, edebi zevk.
