Disarming Microaggressions 

You’re so articulate. 

Where are you really from?
You’re Asian, you must be good in math.

These kinds of comments or questions can sound harmless or even like compliments, but they actually carry a hidden message that hurts.

This award-winning course was produced in partnership with Dr. Derald Wing Sue, Columbia University, one of the leading researchers on the topic of microaggressions. Dr. Sue has written dozens of books and he generously gave us access to all of his work to create Disarming Microaggressions.

“The gold standard of anti-bias training.”

“Joel Lesko and SunShower Learning have produced the gold standard of anti-bias training that will have a lasting and beneficial impact in business, industry and education. If equity, diversity and inclusion are important goals for your organization, community and the nation, then this interactive training video will teach employers and employees concrete skills to confront and disarm microaggressions (bias and bigotry).
The training teaches targets, allies and bystanders specific actions that involve making the ‘invisible’ visible, disarming microaggressions, and educating offenders. It is filled with real-life examples of harmful microaggressions, along with tested intervention actions that can be taken to create norms that reinforce an inclusive, respectful, and welcoming environment.”

Important for allies

Dr. Sue defines microaggressions as “the everyday slights, invalidations, and offensive behaviors that people of marginalized groups experience in their daily interactions with generally well-intentioned people who are unaware of their impact. Although any one microaggression may appear small, trivial, harmless or insignificant, they are constant and cumulative.”

High Quality, Trustworthy
Addressing Microaggressions is not an easy endeavor, but SunShower makes the concepts very accessible and relatable to a broad range of audiences. The fact that Dr. Derald Wing Sue (the "godfather" of research on microaggressions) adds another layer of exceptionalism to this content. In general, Sunshower is an absolute dream to work with, and I trust them very much. In today's climate, where there are many who claim to be DEI "experts," this is not insignificant!

Positive feedback
As part of our company's commitment to DEI, we have leveraged several of Sunshower Learning's courses. The content is on point and delivered in easy-to-consume, fun methods. We receive positive feedback from our team members and leaders on the Inclusion in Action, Microaggression and Unconscious Bias courses. We love being able to offer such thought-provoking content!
