Sample Book Insights:
#1 I realized I was black when I was seven or eight years old. I was walking home from school with neighborhood kids, and we learned that we black kids couldn’t swim at the pool in our area park, except on Wednesday afternoons.
#2 The purpose of this book is to bring this part of social reality into view. I hope to convince you that ignoring it is costly, not only to your own personal success and development, but also to the quality of life in an identity-diverse society and world.
#3 The threat of a stereotype is a common predicament of life. It comes from our human powers of intersubjectivity, which is the fact that we have a good idea of what other members of our society think about lots of things, including the major groups and identities in society.
#4 The experience of living under a stereotype is something that everyone has, and it is how we deal with it that determines whether it will affect us positively or negatively.
