Breakout Session 2B:
Implicit Bias and You

Christina Chang

Wednesday, September 23
12:00 PM – 1:00 PM

Session Description

Despite spurious claims of being pseudoscience, implicit bias is very real. Every day, we make tens of thousands of automatic, unconscious decisions to successfully navigate our complicated world. But what happens when we apply those unconscious decisions against people? We'll explore the systemic biases that overwhelmingly affect marginalized communities and populations in the workplace, and strategies to interrupt.
