Breaking Stereotype: Seeing People for Who They Are

Have you ever heard someone say something like, “You can’t do that because you’re a girl,” or “People like you don’t belong here”? Maybe you’ve noticed how certain characters in movies or TV shows always act a certain way because of how they look, where they’re from, or what they believe.

This book is here to help you understand what stereotypes are, why they exist, and how they affect people. But more importantly, it’s here to show you how you can challenge stereotypes and make the world a kinder, more inclusive place
