You know how we all have these wild ideas about what America looks like, right? Well, I dive into that in today’s talk, where I lay out just how off our perceptions can really be. A recent YouGov poll shows that folks think a whopping 20% of the country is Muslim when it’s actually just 1%. We even think 10% of households are raking in over a million bucks, but nope, it’s still just 1%. And get this—most people believe 40% of Americans are Black, while the real number is around 12%. It’s like we’re living in our own little bubbles, overestimating small groups and totally missing the bigger picture. So, let’s unpack why we tend to see the world through such a skewed lens and what that means for us.
