221 | Dr. Wayne Curtis "Never Judge a book by its cover"
from Colors: A Dialogue on Race in America · host The Colors Podcast
They say first impressions matter — but they’re not always right. You’ve heard the phrase, “don’t judge a book by its cover,” and it holds true far beyond the pages of a novel. Someone’s appearance, voice, or background might tell part of their story, but never the whole truth. The quietest person in the room may have the loudest courage. The worn-out cover may hold the richest content. In a world quick to label and divide, taking the time to look deeper isn’t just kind — it’s wise. Because beneath the surface, every person carries a story you haven’t heard yet. This is the story of Dr. Wayne Curtis, a man who came up the rough side of the mountain.Tweet us at @podcastcolors.
