Episode 4: Implicit Bias with Dr. Laura Hunter
Today we are honored to welcome Dr. Laura Hunter. We will be discussing the research and ways that we can all be more aware of implicit bias and work together as a community to make change that focuses on equity and honoring the differences in each other. This is a good one folks!
"I think acknowledging that we all have these biases is really important because you have to acknowledge it before you can actually take steps to address it."-- Dr. Hunter
