One of the reasons for the power and danger of prejudices lies in the fact that something of the past is always hidden within them. Upon closer examination, we realize that a gemine prejudice always conceals some previously formed judgement which orginally had its own appropriate and legitimate experiential basis, and which evolved into a prejudice only because it was dragged through time without its ever being reexamined or revised." -Hannah Arendt, "Introduction at Politics" The above quote addresses how unexamined prejudice can warak havoc on politics. Within the large context of the essay, "Introduction in Politics," Hannah Arendt's comments on paejudice and the need to examine and admit one's beliefs are part of an introduction into the experience of politics. Similar to Kart Jasper's Finfubrung in die Philosophie (Introduction into Philopy), Arendt's essay minors her mentor's book which "led its readers to the experience of communicating philosophic thought. An introduction into the experience of politics, on the other hand, aims to explore how humans ought to act politically. Arendt defines polities as a distinct and intentional way of existing among other humans which is best exemplified by a participatory democracy. But a crucial lindrance to politics is prejudice: hence, Arendt calls us to critically examine the soot of our bases in order to adjust our future judgements and actions. In turn, hes goal is to encourage a robust involvement in politics which is mindful of prejudice.
