&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ccffff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A Brief History of colour&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #ccffff;&quot;&gt;Since the beginning of the world and humankind, light has been appearing continually, causing clear visibility, plenty of life, and especially numerous colours we see in the air. According to Newton&amp;rsquo;s observation, the way we see colour is because objects reflect one from many colours through our eyes and brain. Also, in each colour, we can receive many degrees of it called &amp;lsquo;Chroma&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ccffff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Chroma /ˈkrəʊmə/ means &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;the degree to which a colour is pure or strong, or the fact that it is pure or strong.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; It is derived from a Greek word &amp;lsquo;&amp;chi;&amp;rho;ῶ&amp;mu;&amp;alpha;&amp;rsquo; or &amp;lsquo;khr&amp;ocirc;ma&amp;rsquo; which means &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;surface of the body, skin, colour of the skin&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; colour&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;. The word &amp;lsquo;chroma&amp;rsquo; is basically found in such words as chromosome, chromatic, monochrome, etc., and all words are related to colour.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #ccffff;&quot;&gt;Besides the word, chroma or colour can affect human&#39;s emotions, especially in artworks; it can persuade us to feel what the painter or designer wants to convey. For example, if the painter wants to present purity, innocence or cleanliness, they&amp;rsquo;re gonna paint mostly in white. Or if they want to present power, strength, or death, they&amp;rsquo;re gonna use black as a major colour. Moreover, the use of colours has appeared in many cultures around the world; in the era of Ancient Egypt, they used natural pigments for painting faces, pyramid walls and even coffins. You might see many of the Ancient Greek &amp;mdash; and Roman &amp;mdash; statues in white, but did you know during their time, the statues were covered in multiple colours? Also in Indian culture, they celebrate the &amp;lsquo;Holi Festival&amp;rsquo; with colourful powders for the sake of goodness above evil. As you can see, colours are strongly related to human life in many dimensions. Yet, we have developed the use of colours, we found the concept of colours in the light, and we have been using colours to symbolise something, such as logos, movies, and even social movements.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ccffff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;During 28&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;th&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; June 1969, the most well-known uprising took place at the Stonewall Inn (later used as the name of the riots), NYC. This was one of a few places for gay people to freely express who they were since they had been socially suppressed for a long time. At that night, police raided on gay people in the bar as usual, but the reaction was different; they fought the police back causing the riots on fire. The incident, consequently, started massive waves in LGBTQ+ community as a revolution for social equality around the world. Afterwards, we have celebrated June as the month of Pride in remembrance of all the braves at the bar that night. Then Gilbert Baker, an artist, activist, and openly gay military veteran, created a rainbow flag called &amp;lsquo;Pride Flag&amp;rsquo; to represent the diversity in the gay community. It was inspired by &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;the Wizard of Oz&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&amp;rsquo;s classic song &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Over the Rainbow&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; and has been used until now.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
