Judged By a Different Standard

By Joanna Romero, Santiego Rivers, Keziia Paulino

In a world where fairness is often preached but not always practiced, people of color frequently navigate different professional and everyday expectations.
From the workplace to society at large, individuals from minority backgrounds are often scrutinized more harshly, expected to work twice as hard for the same recognition, and held accountable for behaviors that others may be forgiven for.
This book is designed to illuminate these realities, providing insight for those who may not have had "The Talk" from their parents or guardians as children.

"The Talk" is the difficult but necessary conversation that many minority parents must have with their children to prepare them for the biases they will encounter.
This conversation is more than just understanding prejudice; it is about survival.
It teaches young people of color how to move through a world that may judge them unfairly and hold them to a different standard than their peers.
Everything we do not prepare our kids for will ultimately be the stumbling blocks that become the wall keeping them from their goals in life.
