Uncovering & Dismantling Bias (DEIC, Pre-Register) Online
Although in recent years the construct of "Implicit bias" has become a buzz word, our attitudes and sense of urgency when it comes to identifying and dismantling our own biases, more often than not, reflect a myopic understanding of their pervasive and corrosive impact on societal systems. The fact is, our socialization within racist, sexist, ethnocentric, homophobic, transphobic, islamophobic and/or christianophobic systems (to name a few), makes us carriers of assumptions, attitudes, reflexes and behaviors that sustain these ideologies. As a result we often stand in the way of our own stated values and desires to achieve inclusion and champion equity. Join us in this workshop to:
1-Understand the origins, neuroscience and impact of bias
2-Understand the importance of dismantling bias
3-Identify your own biases and practice approaches to begin dismantling these biases
