Episode description

Science tells us that 95% of the population has implicit biases yet there is only a 16% correlation between the bias and behavior. So is racist, homophobic and misogynistic behavior not principally triggered by implicit bias ? That's what the science says according to Fast Company magazine, but politicians would have us believe otherwise.  

I attended a 5 hour Implicit Bias class sponsored by the San Francisco Police Department - the same one that all sworn and unsworn personnel must take. It was very instructive and some useful takeaways to add to your interpersonal toolkit: the four pillars - Voice, Respect, Neutrality and Trust.  I was very encouraged by the presentation. Listen to my podcast for the full story.
