Are you racist? We typically go on the defensive mode and deny it. As humans, we aim to be good. We don't go out of our way to say "I hate (colour)". Still, our experience and our lives we sometimes pick up bad habits. Habits that contribute to our bias. Talks about race and any ism, is really complex. I used the question to make you think. How we react says a lot about how we receive information. How we process information.... And what surfaces to the top of our mind is brought up by our bias. When we hear certain words, it can be loaded with our assumptions. That's our bias. Acceptance is the first step. We all have these bias. The process of learning and unlearning is an on-going one. With what's going on in America. It's triggering a wider conversation about race and even, police brutality. Here are some more questions to think about: 1. Who holds power? 2. Who holds the least power? 3. Where do you sit? 4. What will you do next? Everything we do is a choice. A choice to consciously break our bias. A choice to question our thinking. A choice to Google "white fragility". A choice to make new friends (outside our usual sphere) A choice to learn how to be a better ally. A choice to break a shitty system. It's your choice. #stringtheory on #race
