These educational videos were well designed to help the viewer gain the potential perspectives of multiple members of the healthcare team. I appreciate the interactive features and the ability to observe how varying responses to difficult situations might play out and affect the team dynamic. This teaching has increased my awareness of how my own communication and behaviors may affect others. I feel inspired to do more to be an ally for promoting diversity & inclusion and ending racism.

This course was very well done in terms of content and presentation, with the exception of technical issues watching it on an iOS device. I had to try a second device in order to be able to view the entire screen.

Ending of racism is so important an aspect of changing the believe that somehow we humans are separated from each other based on superficial differences. A real galvanizing solution to the suffering we have in our lives right now is to reconnect to the ONE human essence that needs, loves, suffers and hope for the same.

Excellent presentation touching upon how racism permeates our work. The videos not only focused on how to identify different shades of racism but also laid out ways in which everyone should address them and improve the goals of our work by being more inclusive and imbibing the richness that diversity brings.

As we speak about racism, videos are one thing. Action is another. We must commit to measurable and sustainable change.

this information is exactly what we need in the work place. Our next step is to get all employees to comply; its easy to do an online training, but actions speak louder than words. Its time to go above and beyond to enforce the importance of this lesson.
