Through scenario-based learning, participants will develop skills for recognizing racial bias and confronting discrimination. An overview of related Human Resources policies and practices will be given to support employees in actively dismantling racism within Mass General Brigham.

although I feel some of the responses by white workers were overly optimistic (I'm unsure whether a racist individual constantly presenting microaggressions would stop as easily as the video/course portrayed), I appreciate the effort put into the course and details on how to respond/evade certain situations. I'd recommend putting together a more realistic "how to respond to a racist white boss" portion through speaking to other colleagues/reporting or at least not having the employee facing racist remarks and/or behavior needing to respond to the status quo so blindly, even at first, and also having a more realistic portrayal of the "work" white employees presenting racist behaviors need to do, so that they can adequately shift their behaviors and frankly act right..
