How often do we question the beliefs we have spent a lifetime accepting?

We recognize prejudice when it is directed at us. We notice unfairness when someone else is responsible. But what happens when the bias is part of a family tradition, a cultural norm, a political conviction, or a belief we have never thought to question?

In Planet Bigotry, Nathen Grayye explores the many ways prejudice finds its way into ordinary life. Through 40 fictional vignettes across 20 chapters, he examines the assumptions that divide people, the double standards they defend, and the everyday behaviors whose consequences often go unnoticed.

The stories move through family relationships, education, religion, politics, language, class, health, appearances, power, and the expectations people impose on themselves. Some confront familiar forms of discrimination. Others explore less obvious sources of judgment, including generational conflict, perfectionism, and the need to feel superior or belong.

Rather than limiting his observations to one culture or political viewpoint, Grayye examines human behavior across different societies and circumstances. The result is a collection that invites readers to look beyond the obvious targets of prejudice and consider the habits closer to home.

Planet Bigotry is not about finding someone else to blame. It is about recognizing the assumptions we carry, questioning the standards we apply, and becoming more conscious of how we treat the people around us.

The first step toward changing a behavior is recognizing it. Are you ready to take a closer look?
