Facing the Fractures
By Daxtyn Tran
My name is Daxtyn Tran, and since youth, I, much the same as many others, see many issues in society that don't seem to be adequately addressed.
I do not claim expertise, and I have no formal education outside of high school.
However, I do feel like I am a critical thinker, and have a talent for extracting truth from regular individuals.
There seems to be and element of individual thought that in my opinion, seems to be much in need these days, and is more rare then ever.
We can not only rely on powerful people or organizations, politics or otherwise, to make change.
We all must contribute

Introduction to Mixed Perspectives, a series exploring the nature of race and culture overall
I was inspired to start this series, after hearing so many different points of view throughout my life. I had noticed that many people had views about others that I saw were simply incomplete and misconstrued. The credit I can give to the world, for educating me, opening my eyes, and giving me courage, belong to many. From different races and cultures, from different political views. I have experienced love, warmth, and wisdom from all people. Perhaps this has had part to due with my race, perhaps not. But I would like to share with you these conversations I've had, and hope you may find some valuable insight, in this confusing time. I will not be describing the episodes by labeling the individual by any category. It will come out in the episode. It is my mission that we all become more open to listening to perspectives we aren't used to. Thank you
