Racial and ethnic inequities continue to be prevalent in society today. Whether we willingly admit it or not, racial and ethnic inequities start and end with us. Personally-mediated inequities are more common and more toxic than other forms of inequities because they affect our mental health and well-being. Personally-mediated inequities also support, perpetuate, and maintain systemic racial inequities, creating disadvantages for some groups of people. Making judgments grounded on biased assumptions about a person's abilities and motives can result in differential treatments based on race, ethnicity, or other characteristics. Changing mindset by intentionally disrupting our biased ideas, beliefs, perceptions, thoughts, and assumptions about people is liberating. Mindset: The Equity Dilemma, Interrupting Personally Mediated Inequities can help us intentionally confront our biases and provide guidance on how to purify and renew our minds. The concepts outlined and explored in this book can be applied to our lives, regardless of the spaces (social or professional) we occupy. If we desire to live in a fair and just world, interrupting personally-mediated inequities is a critical step every individual should be willing to take.
