Definitions

 

Let me be specific about the purpose of this new blog. First, I will start with some definitions that will pertain to this blog. Then more thoughts and ideas will come.

Evolution:

 1. the gradual development of something from a simple to a more complex form.

2. to change or vibrate at a higher frequency.

3. to grow, rise, flourish

4. maturity. 

5. moving from one form to another spiritually.

 

Revolution:

 1. the movement of an object in a circular or elliptical course around another or about an axis or center.

2. a dramatic and wide-reaching change in the way something works or is organized or in people's ideas about it.

3. to turn or to roll back.

4. a forcible overthrow of a government or social order, in favor of a new system.


Let us clarify the definitions of racism and prejudice.


Racism: 

a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race.

 Prejudice (has two definitions)

1. injury or damage resulting from some judgment or action of another in disregard of one's rights. 

 2. adverse opinion or leaning formed without just grounds or before sufficient knowledge.


Now let us talk about fear and perception:

FEAR is a painful emotion or passion excited by the expectation of evil, or the apprehension of impending danger; apprehension; anxiety; solicitude; alarm; dread.

 Perception is the way you think about or understand someone or something.
