One Diverse Nation, Many Stories

Let me start by telling a personal story. Forget "race" - that's a tired concept. We're all just people, colors on a magnificent human rainbow. Some folks crave sticking with their own "kind," clinging to this idea of "race" for comfort, scared of feeling alone around those different. Me? I can't stand that! I feel most alive, most at peace, when I'm surrounded by this incredible human variety. Stick me in a room full of white folks, Black folks, Chinese folks - doesn't matter!
