Implicit Bias & Owning Whiteness (Polyvagal Theory & Anti-Racist Practice)

Implicit Bias & Owning Whiteness

Its only implicit until you can address it directly

In the film above, created specifically to support the anti-racist practice of White folks, we take a deep dive into what implicit or unconscious bias actually is, at a physiological level, and begin to explore practices to better understand, and to subsequently deconstruct it. This film is a complement to How Whiteness Operates, and extends terms and concepts that articulated there.
