NATIONAL FREEDOM DAY IN THE USA 2019

 

February 1 is the annual observance of National Freedom Day in the USA. This day honors the signing of resolution that later became the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

 

Abraham Lincoln signed the document that outlawed slavery on February 1, 1865. Although this resolution was ratified by the states later, it was the very first step to make all people regardless of their origin and color of skin free.

 

Major Richard Robert Wright Sr., American civil rights advocate, politician and former slave, believed, that one day all American should celebrate their freedom. He invited national and local leaders to meet and to organize a movement that would commemorate the signing of the 13th Amendment by A. Lincoln.

 

This resulted in the establishment of National Freedom Association, that later proposed to set a memorial date calling the attention to the continuing struggle for freedom for African-Americans. The day of the signing of the 13th Amendment was chosen as the day of National Freedom Day.

 

The first celebration and commemoration of events took place in 1942 at Independence Hall in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Every year a wreath, as a symbol of remembrance, is laid at the Liberty Bell.

Conspiracy theories and the media

 

"What's interesting about QAnon is that it's not a passive experience for people who believe it." Travis View, cohost of the QAnon Anonymous Podcast says, "It's very gamified, it's very fun but the problem is that they don't actually really think it's a game, they think that they're actually genuinely uncovering some sort of secret from deep inside the government."

 

In recent months, QAnon believers have been emerging into the open, appearing at Trump rallies. Celebrities such as Roseanne Barr have tweeted about the theory and in December, a California city council member became the first legislator to reference Q in a speech.

YouTube searches for 'RBG' led to slew of bogus conspiracy videos

 

The site still has work to do cleaning up its searches.

 

As much as YouTube has done to counter hoaxes and fake news in its searches, it still has room for improvement. The Washington Post discovered that "more than half" of YouTube's top 20 search results for "RBG," the nickname for US Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, were known fake conspiracy theory videos. In fact, just one of the results came from a well-established news outlet. And if you played one of those videos, the recommendations quickly shifted to more extreme conspiracies.

 

The site addressed the skewed results shortly after the Post got in touch, promoting more authentic videos. There were still conspiracy videos in the mix as of this writing, however. In a statement to the newspaper, YouTube's Farshad Shadloo acknowledged that "there's more to do" in curbing false videos.

 

The internet giant has implemented a number of measures to combat false videos, including fact checking textboxes to counter some falsehoods. However, the "RBG" incident highlights the limitations of its current approach. It still relies on search algorithms that present results based primarily on relevance, not accuracy, and it doesn't offer fact checks for a wide range of subjects, including developing news. Although it's unlikely that many people will be sucked into a conspiracy black hole, this makes life difficult for both vulnerable people and those simply looking for trustworthy videos.
