Self reflective writing exercise

Self-reflecive journaling is a helpful way to process how implicit bias shows up in your personal life. Consider taking the time to journal on implicit bias using the following prompts:

a) Think about a moment where you exhibited implicit bias. i) What do you remember about that moment? ii) What were you feeling at that moment? iii) Were you aware of your implicit bias at that moment? iv) If you were aware, how did you respond in the moment? If you were unaware, how do you feel looking back on that moment?

b) How does implicit bias show up in your classroom? In your discipline? In your department? At your institution?

c) What additional support do you need in order to acknowledge and address your biases?
