. Knowing and overcoming negative bias and
prejudice can help improve our perspectives and
develop personalities. This will open possibilities of
fair judgement and understanding that may lead to a
harmonious and peaceful life. That’s why fairness
and equality should exist among us. Fairness is an
impartial and just treatment of a behavior without

equal in status, rights and opportunities. When you
understand how to be equal and fair, you will
encourage love, respect, trust and humility to
everyone. This will strengthen values and will create
strong community.
