The videos really helped me understand what is really happening in different institutions. It is time for us to stand up for what is right and be mindful about what other people feel.

This content was very informative. It is an essential tool to ensure we all have a deeper understanding of racial microaggressions and how they affect those in the workplace.

I felt the scenario-based learning was an excellent way to present these different scenarios and perspectives. It brings to light how microaggressions often go under the radar and in order to address systemic racism, we must first bring awareness to how it is mainly prevalent today.

I really liked this training module as the four different perspectives gave a lot of insight to the viewer. The four perspectives really showed how racism affects everybody in different ways. The same situation could affect two different people in two very different ways.

Like the top comment said, practice what you preach. We should be continuously making an effort to be aware of racial issues and exclusivity and speak up as an ally to help minimize this. Educate yourself while educating others on the matter.

The different scenarios and perspectives of each employee really helped me understand the emotions of each of them and truly how often racism can occur in a workplace. This training was very beneficial and important to implement so all employees can do better to prevent situations like those happening in the future.

I agree with the four different scenarios, they were also very well written and I think those videos should be played and sent to the patients so that they can also see the human aspect of healthcare workers.
