Reclaiming the Term Animism from Academic Pejoratives
White explores the history of the word "animism," noting it was originally a pejorative term invented by 19th-century academics to describe "superstitious" cultures. He compares the reclamation of the word to the term "conspiracy theorist," suggesting both words still hold significant psychological energy. The segment concludes that the term is returning to currency because the Western theory of mind has failed to account for parapsychological realities.
