Find common ground.
I think the first thing one needs to keep in mind when seeking to understand others is the fact that there are always, always similarities. We are all human. That means we follow the same genetic blueprints with only the slightest variations on specific details. Hair color, eye color, skin tones, facial features, hair variation... These and more may differ, yet we all are designed to function with the same set of organs- a heart, two lungs, kidneys, etc.
We're all intended to have two arms, with five fingers a hand, two legs, each with five toes.
With physical makeup alone, we already share much in common. Isn't that reason enough to not immediately disregard or even despise one another?
