How to Overcome Common Biases about Our Personalities

In this TEDx talk, Leonard Pitts, Jr., an American commentator, journalist, and novelist speaks about his experience with Hurricane Andrew and what false beliefs this very disaster helped him to recognize. He says that our biases mostly revolve around race, religion, and sexual orientation. He challenges this in his speech and states that, for most of us, the biggest challenge is not to judge others by any superficial limiting paradigms and recognize our true humanity beneath all of these.
