Cassy Huidobro

Cassy Huidobro is a published author, TEDx Speaker and Video Blogger.

Cassy was born in Peru and grew up in the United States. Growing up, she’d ask questions to the adults in charge about race, discrimination and divisive issues our society faces. She was told not to ask those types of questions or received vague answers.

Her book, is anyone else feeling the same way? Touches on some of these uncomfortable questions, and her recent TEDx Talk in Colorado Springs is about dissolving our racial divide.

As an adult, Cassy started a video blog of uncomfortable questions to get some of the answers our society lacks, by going directly to what she calls “the source.” The source are the people who have the most knowledge about these questions and can provide answers from their unique point of view.

Cassy holds a Master’s Degree of Languages and Literature from the University of Utah, and is committed to dissipate ignorance with education. Only then, she says, we’ll see each other for who we really are: Human.
