Today Author/lawyer and podcaster Mark Bello and I are with Yvener Duroseau, author of “Alike Regardless: This is Where it Began.” His mission is to encourage us to challenge the status quo, fight for social justice, and seek to challenge the norm of division that’s present in humankind.

Yvener was born in Haiti before moving to the United States. He grew up learning Haiti’s profound history as the first nation in which a group of enslaved Africans came together to fight and win their independence.

Yvener is a creative writer, Diversity and inclusion consultant, author, and motivational speaker on diversity and inclusion. His debut book, Alike Regardless, challenges the norm of division present in humankind. It is a call to action for people to recognize the beauty and uniqueness throughout the human race and cease wearing the blinders of bigotry and hate.

In his book, to be published in August, Yvener pours out his soul, reveals the dreams he has for a more diverse and socially just world, and prompts readers to think more deeply about these issues.

On the podcast, Yvener challenges us to look inward, assess the reasons for racist or discriminatory thoughts, and commit to putting those aside. His is a message of positivity, of optimism, of hope. It is a view of what the world could be if we all would just try.

Take a listen. It's worth your time.
