Well done, and eye opening. I agree with prior comments that we should all help stand up and speak up for others to actively dismantle racism.

Training was great and informative, hopefully it will have meaningful impacts not beyond our day to day work lives. Trainings like this are just a start.

Very helpful training, they did a great job showing how subtle (or not so subtle) microagressions can be.

This was an excellent way to mirror our biases which we need to realize/admit we have and ask ourselves why and how to change and see the other point of view.

I agreed.

It's been 6 months since I lived in the U.S. but I've still gone through lots of hidden difficulties.

And.. it's hard for me to distinguish which part(at least some part) is due to racism matter and which is attributed to my language, culture, and personality matter.

This was great, timely, powerful and important. The differing perspectives of our healthcare colleague examples were informative and the program as a whole empowering towards the goals of identifying and dismantling racism where and when we see it.

I don't think this course is going to make any racist person being less of a racist. What needs to happen is that when someone complains about racists' comments and attitudes then it is taken seriously. Usually nothing happens.

So many times someone has "joked" about my accent and has asked me where I am from? or said things like "your people". 

My only hope as the going forward more diverse people are hired in this institution.

We each play a role in not solely creating a safer work environment for one another, but a more accepting society

I am impressed by the reconstruction of these accurate events that go unnoticed. This really helps spread awareness among even the simplest of interactions.

I appreciated all of the videos, but especially the one that talked about how collegues should interrupt the micro- or not so microaggressions that they see patients make toward our team members. I believe sometimes those are let go with concerns around thinking it is either not worth it or we have to just let it go because they are 'clients'.
