Thanks for taking the time to prepare and deliver this

Thank you!

Glad to!

That is a wonderful lesson Jer. In the past, when facilitiate learning using using images in healthcare and human resources, authencity may be even more important than diversity, becuause it is about integrity. We should aspire, but also realize where we are.

Open and willing to engage with people 💯

learning requires openness and reflection about who and how we are teaching. we want to reach everyone. if we don't reach EVERYONE, we are teaching

I'll share this handout digitally later.

Thank you!

Compliance is FORCE. when humans are forced to do something, we might be compliant until the FORCE is removed. then we go back to do what we did before. Competence is really the beginning of sustainable change

good dream to hope for

Changing the definition of normal…

I love this picture 🥰

you do have to invest time, resources and be clear of your intent.

This was so powerful, thank you!

This was an AWESOME session, Jer! I appreciate your honesty and authenticity! Moving forward together!! 💯

Thank you!

Thank you so much, Jer!

Thanks appreciate your effort. Richard

Can you repeat questions so we can hear too

Thank you!

Can you all hear Dr. Lam on Zoom?

Yes. Thank you!

Simple things can make a world of difference!

great distinction between multicultural and inter cultural

"agitiate" versus "raise awareness"

If we replaced the words "diversity equity and inclusion" with "caring fairness and belonging" how might we change views? Would WE see our role in getting to that DREAM differently? Just like images, language is important. We all want to be cared for, treated fairly and belong. We should all be motivated for this reason to show caring, fairness and belonging to others.

I love that we are having this conversation. The Bible tells us we will be known by our love. There is a lot being shared nowadays but not all of it is being shared in love…These conversations are difficult and uncomfortable but they need to continue.

Very nice Deanna. Love is key

Absolutely!! ❤️

Thanks for making this apriorty. we only work on things that we think are important and a priority.

Often people in the majority culture need to be reminded specifically who to love.

So true, Charity.

and HOW to love,

Yes!

Yes, we resort to specific terms that encourage inclusion because the majority culture gets swept away. It takes effort to notice who is being left out.

I think we are missing the concept THE "Fears" here. Fear of lost of power, fear of being ignorant/incompetent, Fear of unknown, Fear of being wrong.

Yes, Nathan.

That is awesome!

Thank you!
