A big part of learning about racism and how it affects the workplace has been understanding and addressing microaggressions which are often viewed as benign, "normal" parts of our day to day.

I totally agree with these scenarios. Never judge people from their appearance, color, and language. Very well done!

Really helpful.  Need more of this.  Recognize my own internalized racism and how it benefits me and my own fear about speaking up to change things.  I appreciated the admonition to: ddo your own work" around racism. Much needed.

This was a well meaning course that I hope will be just one part of a broad effort to change systemic issue at MGB
