#ThrowbackThursday: 80 years ago this month — in January 1946 — Einstein wrote an essay speaking out against racism. Einstein, who was very active in the Civil Rights movement, wrote, in part: "Our attitude towards things is conditioned by opinions, value judgments and emotions which we unconsciously absorb as children," adding that "the powerful influence of tradition is the influence of our conscious thought upon our conduct and convictions.”
