The Possible Origins of Racism – Monday 22nd March 2021

I have long suspected that racism is a thing that we incorrectly translated from our very early times. And over time, became something that wasn’t meant to be.
All creatures have in their make-ups the instinct to not be with creatures that differ from themselves. They live with the other creatures generally in harmony but when they have families, they intuitively and instinctively, have the in-built instruction that they remain with same.
Our species had this in-built in us and as we developed we misconstrued this instinct into something distorted.
Our intellects were growing but we had no explanation, so I believe we thought different is bad, in a basic way, and thats where I believe racism sprang from.
