Confront Implicit Bias: Take an Online Course

In our work for racial justice, we must confront the ways that racism is woven into our culture, our institutions, and even our own psyches.

“Implicit Bias: What We Don’t Think We Think” is an online course created by The United Methodist General Commission on Religion and Race for anyone interested in learning and teaching others about implicit bias.

Share this link with family, friends, neighbors, coworkers–and commit yourself to learning more about how implicit bias perpetuates racial injustice.
