Where Colors Meet is a compelling anthology that delves deep into the complex themes of race relations, equality, and social justice. Created by Seeking Insights for Solutions (SIS), a diverse group of women united by a shared mission of fostering understanding and respect across racial lines, this collection brings together personal stories that explore both our differences and our shared humanity.
In the wake of George Floyd's tragic death in 2020, we came together to have real conversations about race. Through the diverse voices of our members, "Where Colors Meet" invites readers to ignite empathy, spark meaningful discussions, and inspire lasting change in their communities.
If you believe in the power of storytelling to bridge divides, foster understanding, promote racial healing and empower social advocacy, this anthology is a must-read.
"Advance Praise" for Where Colors Meet
I read your AMAZING anthology and amazing doesn't begin to describe it. All I can say is that it was GRIPPING...from the first page I was grabbed and then the stories that followed, one after another captivated me - and kept building. I think what made it so powerful was the stories are side by side.

Virtually since the country's inception, U.S. citizens have been told they are overdue for a national 'conversation about race' which somehow never seems to happen. In the meantime, and over a silence spanning centuries, racial atrocities continue to accumulate. This anthology speaks back to a nation's willful disavowal from the local level. In these pages, a remarkable collective of women confront difficult truths about how race is experienced in hopes of transcending our ongoing racial nightmare. With stories both intimate and resonant, these authors write to advance the dream of transracial democracy.

The model of SIS is an inspiring example of bringing diverse people together. It underscores the reality that as we get to know one another and become friends, racism and prejudice organically melt away and, one heart at a time, will lead to change in the world.
