Word Power Part 2

I'm still focused on the power of words.  Several words and phrases have been repeated often in the last four to six weeks.  Below are some examples.

• truth
• alternative fact
• fake news
• Russia
• the enemy is the press
• wall
• immigration 

Study this list and assess how these words have taken on a scary amount of power.  Even more, try to figure out how the meanings of these words have changed in recent weeks. Then think about how the meanings have impacted this country. 

What other words and phrases have radically changed in meaning?

Why do we need to give them our utmost attention?  

I suggest we all do our part to notice word usage in the days to come.  What could happen if we don't?
