I participated in an activity while at Salesforce on unconscious bias, I think it was based on this book: https://www.amazon.com/Blindspot-Hidden-Biases-Good-People/dp/0553804642?ref=d6k_applink_bb_dls&dplnkId=1bebf627-7d20-467f-bc51-92c9265d497f
I thought it was really interesting, because the test we all took clearly showed (quantitatively) how we were biased toward "white is good" and "black is bad" - regardless if the test taker was white, black, or anything in-between, and then discussed cultural influences that may be causing that. For me it was a reminder to actively combat bias, not just rely on my self-perceived wit and good intentions. And the discussion with the leader and participants was really good.
Thank you! I’ll definitely look into the book and the activity. Unconscious bias is a great topic
