Level Two: Overcoming Obstacles to Inclusion

Level Two – Overcoming Obstacles to Inclusion 

Module 1: Thinking Fast and Slow:  Introduction to Unconscious bias 

This module provides a research-based and accessible overview of unconscious bias—something all of us have—and some ways to mitigate its influence on our decision-making processes.

Module 2: The Little Things We Say: Introduction to Microaggressions

This module takes a nuanced and balanced approach to introducing this somewhat controversial concept and its potentially harmful effects.

Module 3:  Margins and Mainstreams: Introduction to Privilege

This module presents an intersectional approach to the concept of privilege, one that focuses on race, gender, social class, sexual orientation, gender identity, physical ability, and religion. This approach allows all participants to explore those aspects of their personal identity that afford or deny them unseen and unearned privileges.
