Amy… recently spent time with our Association discussing Implicit Bias. She immediately broke down the wall of defensiveness and judgment surrounding this topic by explaining the purpose of the brains processing abilities. This allowed everyone to receive the message in a more open-minded headspace. Once everyone learned that our brains were functioning as they were biologically meant to be, we were educated on the mitigation strategies for biased thoughts. With our new set of skills we were able to open up and have dialogue I feel will begin to better our world. I am grateful for the opportunity to work with Project Implicit.
