CUHP042 Eliminating Unconscious Bias

Jessica discusses her new award-winning book, THE END OF BIAS—A Beginning: How We Eliminate Unconscious Bias and Create a More Just World. We discuss her own personal journey to understanding unconscious bias, methods to help individuals begin to address their own biases, and some creative programs that have begun to demonstrate promising practices, including with police forces. Jessica helps readers and listeners unpack how unconscious bias works, why it’s so persistent, and, most importantly, reveals successful stories of bias reduction that have the potential to inspire replication everywhere.
