Unwinding Prejudice
While many of us would like to believe we live in a "post-prejudicial‚" society, we're simply not there. Tribalism is on the rise and our traditional power structures reenforce inequality. Through our exposure to this system, we internalize implicit biases that influence our choices and actions. This process is so insidious, we may not even know we're prejudiced. If we aspire to be a "shining city on the hill," then it is our responsibility to have an earnest dialogue about subconscious stereotypes and institutional power dynamics. Until we understand how our own biases shape this landscape — and take responsibility for changing them — we'll reinforce a cycle that has its genesis in the darkest parts of human history.
