Eye opening. Understanding from another perspective is needed and this was perfectly set up for that.

This module utilized 4 examples of realistic scenarios that exemplify racism in the workplace, and how to appropriately intervene when these issues arise. I hope that these modules help bring about a better understanding of discrimination in the workplace and what we can do to eradicate these issues.

I thought seeing the different experiences of multiple people was helpful and gave a good insight of what multiple people can go through.

Videos were helpful to see each person's point of view and how to overcome these encounters and voicing your own opinion and diversity is important.

Its important to speak up an communication talking about it voicing out your concerns would allow you to be a better person.

I think all four scenarios put into perspective what caucasion employees can do that will truly show people of color that we are putting in the work to combat racisim and using our voice to change the narrative.

The four scenarios discussed the discrepancies that occur in the work place and effective ways in which the issues can be managed and decreased in not only the hospital but other workplaces as well.

This was a great course! it really helped viewers put themselves in the shoes of different coworkers and different roles. Lots of self reflection opportunities. 

Stephanie Salvador replied on

Watching each scenario unfold really helped me see how important each person's reaction is, whether they are one of the two people involved in an encounter, if they are an observer/bystander.  Knowing how to respond, professionally, ethically, and conscientiously is important, if we want to create a workplace where all employees, regardless of their job, race, gender, orientation, or culture feel safe, respected, and appreciated.
