I like how in each scenario taught us how to think before we speak and gather your thoughts before taking an action.

and also, on how to communicate with peers and coworkers.

These scenarios opened my eyes to how easily people can use comment or actions to make people of other races feel uncomfortable in their workplace. It made me angry that the people in the scenarios were put in these positions and made to feel this way. I hope to never encounter actions of hate like this in my workplace.
