biases

As I watch Mer­rick Gar­land tes­ti­fy­ing I lis­ten to him speak to
“racial bias”
not
“racism”
but racial bias.

That knee jerk re­ac­tion that we hu­mans have.

Hav­ing racial bias does NOT make you a racist. It makes you a nor­mal human.

Un­der­stand­ing my own racial bias has not only opened my eyes about the way I re­spond to those of dif­fer­ent races but also how I re­spond to ALL people.

I find I also have
“dumb dri­ver” bias –
“Ir­ri­tat­ing child” bias,
“rude shop­per” bias,
“Amer­i­can flag on a pick-up” bias,
“re­turn the damned cart, ass­hole” bias,
etc.

This means that in that mo­ment of re­ac­tion, that mo­ment of judge­ment, I am us­ing my bias to di­rect my re­sponse and there­fore the out­come and my own future.

Our bi­as­es, that every­one of us has is HOW we start the day.

We wake up with them we nur­ture them and we re­in­force them with our un­con­scious thoughts.

When we be­come aware of our bi­as­es we can cor­rect them, we can ed­u­cate them, we can help them grow and change into acceptance.

That is the very first step in Human,
and not just racial, Equality.
