There are folks who have been working in this space for a long time. Below we have links to articles, podcasts, videos and more that have been helpful to us as we explore our own privilege and bias.

​

Privilege and bias can be a difficult place to explore, particularly for people with some privilege they haven't been very in touch with before. The key here is to really notice if you are having a defensive reaction and instead of being ashamed of that or shutting down to what is making you defensive, consider that what is making you defensive has a lot of information to give you. If you take a little space and practice some de-escalation, you might find information under the defensiveness that could use some detangling.   

​

This is also a place where a lot of people get really stuck. Notice if you are getting stuck and see whether moving to other sections and coming back to this will help you.
