Dot Exercise - Unlearning: Breaking Bias. Building Community.

About the Program:

2018 New England Emmy Nominated

When we are born, we innately value justice and fairness. Prejudice, however, is learned and no one is immune. So how do we fight discrimination, bias and bigotry? How do we build communities that are inclusive and just for all? For 90 years the National Conference for Community and Justice has been answering these questions. This is the story of breaking bias—one unlikely friendship at a time. What can be learned can be unlearned.

I liked the way biases were exhibited without even a thought or consciousness

Great video! I did not realize it until near the end that he did not say group yourselves by color and they assumed.

I don't know growing up I hung out with people who listen to same kinda music and was into same kinda stuff I married a Puerto Rican and my best friend is a Hindu I've always had many different ethnic groups as friends we all where attracted to each other's interest

It doesn't seem to explain how they grouped themselves. 
Was it by looking at two other people and indicating silently whether those two others had the same color stickers? And then letting someone else indicate silently to you whether you were the same as someone else?

The mark of the beast.This is evil.You are an individual, don't let this "bias" bullshit erase what you are. Your thoughts and opinions are what you are. This so called bias training is actually bias towards your freedom to think.
