Sinopsis

Are You an "Unconscious Racist"?

Stop Asian Hate with this Concise Exercise Handbook✓

In the world we live in, it is so easy to get caught up in ourselves and our own identities. People around us, however, are going through just as much as us and something more.

The privileges we have can make or break our lives as human beings and citizens. As we move toward becoming a progressive society, making changes to our behavior and mentalities toward other people will aid the process.

We all have biases against other people; it’s human nature. However, human nature is not an excuse for making assumptions about people that may hurt them in ways we don’t see.

Everyone has an identity and parts of who they are as people. Identifying who we are and understanding what makes us important individuals will help us understand other people and what makes them individuals as well.
