I wish this training would become a requirement for all employers/employees across the country. Very well done.

I agree that this should be a prerequisite everywhere. I learned a lot of this in college, and it's great to see it enter the workplace more.

A good reminder of all the ways that I am guilty of unconscious bias, insensitivity and falling short of making our work environment a better version of itself.
