Before you fell in love with the show, which main cast (adult) member made you want to watch 9-1-1?
Also, tell me why!
As someone who'd watched Nashville, it was Connie Britton who made me want to watch it. Then I didn't start with it because I had no idea when it was actually on (in Australia because we can get 3-6 months of promo after shows have started in the US) because all our TV was streamed (going into networks apps) and the anxiety was not going well. Then, when I actually got around to watching it, it was also Ryan Guzman because I was a 17-19 year old female when his Step Up movies were released and his during little stint on PLL, I don't think I need to clarify anything there...
I believe that order is better than chaos, creation better than destruction. I prefer gentleness to violence, forgiveness to vendetta. On the whole I think that knowledge is preferable to ignorance, and I am sure that human sympathy is more valuable than ideology.
Dr. Kenneth Bancroft Clark, psychologist, and civil rights activist was born in the Panama Canal Zone on this date July 24, 1914.
Dr. Clark and his wife Mamie Phipps Clark did the research that showed the psychological effects of prejudice on Black people.
The Clarks’ work contributed to the ruling of the U.S. Supreme Court in which it determined that de jure racial segregation in public education was unconstitutional.
They founded the Northside Center for Child Development in Harlem and the organization Harlem Youth Opportunities Unlimited.
Kenneth Clark received his bachelor’s and master’s degree from Howard University. He then enrolled at Columbia University and in 1940, became the first African American to earn the doctorate in psychology at the University.
Clark taught at Hampton Institute (now Hampton University) from 1940 to 1941. A year later, he moved to the City College of New York, becoming the institution’s first permanent black faculty member, and the first Black president of the American Psychological Association.
Bob Larkin's cover for the Doc Savage novel The Red Spider by Lester Dent (writing as Kenneth Robeson).
The Red Spider was written in 1948 for publication in the Doc Savage pulp magazine. However, Dent's new editor killed the story even though it had been commissioned by the previous editor. Dent moved on and continued with his Doc Savage tales.
A copy of the story was found In Street & Smith's (the publisher of Doc Savage, as well as The Shadow) files. The story was finally printed in 1979 as book #95 in Bantam Books paperback reprint series of all of Doc's adventures.
