This training was very well done. As a white employee, each scenario made me think differently about how I act and what I say in different situations. I think everyone around the country should take this course.

Very informative and educational. Helpful for people to see things from different perspectives, and understand that micro aggressions that aren't purposeful are still impactful.

I wish I could take this to other institutions as it's helpful to see real scenarios play out with multiple contexts/point of views colliding

These are trying times, but we work best as a TEAM! Treat your team members with respect.

I believe that everyone can learn something if they are willing to listen and discuss the different point of views in the work place. Everyone has a different experience during their day to day and I think if people of willing to learn and value the meaning of change, a real difference canbe made.

This was the best module I have seen on explaining racism in the hospital with common examples and convincing acting portraying different perspectives. The quality of this helps demonstrate the investment of leadership to make meaningful first steps towards ending racism. It makes me hopeful this module helps start these important conversations among my colleagues.

I think this course is very valuable and helpful to highlight the effects of institutional racism and how it may look differently across departments. 

Julia Cunneen replied on

This was engaging to watch and I thought the acting was good.  Scenarios seemed a little too overt/obvious.  Subtler microaggression examples might make people more likely to recognize themselves as perpetrators.  However even as is it was thought provoking.

Rosemary Reiss replied on

Great discussion that highlights how racism can affect our daily work.

The scenarios in this course have resonated with real scenarios I have experienced as a Spanish speaking nurse. I am glad that the course makes everyone aware of translation services and the importance on not relying on a native speaker to translate.
