The Other Wes Moore: One Name, Two Fates by Wes Moore

5.0

My absolute most referenced, quoted, and referred book of all time. A serious look at education, relationships, race, equality, and opportunity and how our stories feed who we become.


“Do you think that we're products of our environments? I think so, or maybe products of our expectations. Others' expectations of us or our expectations. I mean others' expectations that you take on as your own. I realize how difficult it is to seperate the two. The expectations that others place on us help us form our expectations of ourselves.”
