Top 5 Things You Can Do to Fight Bias, Bigotry and Racism
-
Look in the Mirror
It is hard for most of us to
acknowledge our own biases. Take
the time to stop and evaluate how
you interact with those that are
different from you.
- Get Smart
Take the time to find out more about the cultures, societies and religions that are unfamiliar to you. Education is the key to eliminating the spread of bias, bigotry and racism.
- Listen and Speak Up
Be aware of what you hear on TV,
the radio, from your neighbor, teacher, colleague or friend. Speak up when you hear someone spreading bias, bigotry or racism.
- Venture Beyond
When we think in new ways, meet new people, and embrace new ideas, we expand our capacity for understanding. Being open to different perspectives and lifestyles is one of the best examples you can provide for others to follow.
- Make a Commitment
Do not stand still. Get involved. Join
an organization in your community that inspires you. Participate in programs or honest conversations focusing on human relations issues that are important to you and your community.
