Seeing some of these instances unfold from both white and non-white perspectives was a helpful contrast for me to see. I feel strongly that having been offered a non-white lens will improve my interpretation and subsequently my reaction to these incidences.

The idea of micro aggression was good to consider. The snide, hurtful, back door comments can cause terrible feelings and undermine a person's self esteem and integrity. The course was quite valuable.

These videos were incredibly powerful in pointing out micro aggressions. We need to open our eyes to the everyday happenings regarding racism at our institution and work to correct them, starting with ourselves.
