I like that this book gets me to thinking about biases based on stories I’ve heard. Some stories exaggerate how bad someone is while others exaggerate how good they are. In the end, I appreciate the message from the author that all people should be treated with respect as someone loved and cared for by someone else. Someone, I will admit there are people I find it difficult to extend this treatment to.
