The above was said to a COO. Care to guess the gender? She did not conform to the stereotype held by the speaker. Another micro-aggression: “You don’t sound black.” Worse yet, that was intended as a compliment. Micro-aggressions are painfully common and can result in macro-exclusions. Easy to say “that’s not right” in the abstract but how do you handle those comments “in the moment” when said to you or you hear it said to another? This presentation will show you how to respond and address micro-aggressions.
