In this course learners will discuss their identities and how biases are institutionalized, internalized, and interpersonal. Through small and large group activities we will move from the identification of biases in your life and how they impact perceptions to how we are socialized to hold these biases in the first place. Finally, we will discuss how to use cultural humility as a tool to move us toward improving awareness of biases and intentional inclusion. This is a three-hour session split into two parts with a break in between.
Objectives Part I: By the end of this session participants will be able to:
Objectives Part II: By the end of this session participants will be able to:
In this session learners will continue with concepts introduced in Bias Awareness and Perceptions to identify microaggressions stemming from our biases, perceptions, and socialization. Learners will be able to differentiate the type of bias (behavioral, environmental, or language based and how they can overlap) and how to describe the intent, impact, and assumptions in microaggressive actions and speech. The learner will leave with tools to identify microaggressions in our language moving from a biased to more precise way to speak with one another. This is a three-hour session split into two parts with a break in between.

We will them move into scenario-based explorations of how to interrupt microaggression as they happen or after they’ve occurred and how to process feedback you receive. This is a two-hour session with a break.
