Sample Book Insights:
#1 I was extremely nervous and excited to go to a predominantly white school. I struggled to make new friends because I was always thinking about how I looked, spoke, and acted.
#2 I was not alone in my struggle to understand my new classmates. I was extremely nervous about going to school, because I was not one of the popular girls, and I was sure that they would make fun of me. But I was also not aware of the racial divide in the school, and it troubled me.
#3 I was convinced that my skin color had something to do with the disconnect I felt with other people. I went on to study social psychology, and race and identity have always been central to my research.
#4 The fusiform face area, or FFA, is a region in the brain that helps us distinguish the familiar from the unfamiliar, and it also responds more strongly to faces that are the same race as the person doing the scanning.
