Differences in color, religion, sexuality, or nationality are often seen as threats to our way of life. Has exclusion and lack of interest in those suffering in other parts of the world become a way to protect us from our fears?

In The Triumph of Diversity, Dr. Ciaramicoli analyzes prejudice by tracing it to personal origins and relates true stories of courageous individuals who have overcome hatred, cruelty and sadism to become open-minded, loving resilient people. He re-emphasizes that we are in desperate need of those who unite rather than those who ostracize.
