LLPOT 960 - The Power of Bias and Microaggressions: Awareness and Intervention

We often hear the words "bias" and "microaggression" but what do they mean and how do we know when they are occurring? How can we question our biases? What can we do when we know a microaggression is occurring or has occurred? Join us and learn how to recognize, confront, and address biases and microaggressions. You will explore the different types--what they look like, how they are used, and what impact they have on receivers. You will learn strategies to respond to biases and microaggressions in ways which bring awareness and attention to them and develop a sense of responsibility for addressing social justice.
