The actors did a good job to demonstrate the internal feeling one might have after going through a microaggression, or any sort of racism no matter how blatant or subtle. Great and empowering videos.

I felt this module was very thorough and thoughtful in providing 4-5 different examples of what racism and microaggresions can look like in the workplace and then providing various ways to respond and provide constructive solutions towards dismantling racism.

<p>I thought it was very important to see the different scenarios of how racism can affect certain groups of people in certain ways. It is important for this to be shown in all these ways so that there can be an overall and better understanding for all groups of people on how microaggressions, racism, discrimination, and more can affect people.&nbsp;</p>

I greatly appreciated this course and the impact that it has on individuals and the community as a whole. It provided extensive information on what to look for on a daily basis and how to approach such situations in your workplace.

The contents were kind of shocking seeing all the micro-aggressions come into play so lively within the workplace. But one thing that truly does stand out is the power dynamics, and how nearly impossible it can be to stand up to your ignorant boss. United Against Racism trainings are my favorite part of the health streams, and I enjoy watching them.
