Write 5 pages with APA style on Acceptance of a Knowledge. It can be said that “That which is accepted as knowledge today is sometimes discarded tomorrow”. This is a theory that is easily supported by occurrences in the field of history and ethics where there are often changes in the information previously published due to additional information being discovered that is relevant to the previous claims made.

Take for example the Ethics behind the social standards of our modern society. Ever since the American civil war, social classes and ideologies have been changing from what was originally thought. Consider, for example, the fact that during the civil war, the slaves were thought to be dumb people who were incapable of learning and rising above their station in life. After being granted freedom and equality, the African Americans, as they soon came to be known, disproved the facts about their intellectual abilities over time. Some of the greatest and most inspiring people in American history happen to be Blacks — Martin Luther King Jr and Malcolm X from the most recent history of African Americans, and Oprah Winfrey and, the most important black figure in the history of African Americans, Pres. Barack Obama, in modern history. These people all proved that misconceptions of the past are nothing but that. Written as historically accurate because there was no other information existing at that time to prove otherwise.

Then there was this social theory that women could not be worth anything outside of the home. That the workforce should only be male-dominated because women are incapable of performing the same tasks as men. History once again, proved that this was a baseless theory as women not only began to dominate the workforce after World War II, but that in the 21st century, women now head Fortune 500 companies such as Pepsi and General Motors, and also have proceeded to gain ownership of their private businesses.
