Renni Eddo-Lodge, PBS Newshour<\/em>

Vern\u0101 Myers, TEDx Talk<\/em>
Our biases can be dangerous, even deadly \u2014 as we\u2019ve seen in the cases of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and Eric Garner, in Staten Island, New York. Diversity advocate Vern\u0101 Myers looks closely at some of the subconscious attitudes we hold toward out-groups. She makes a plea to all people: Acknowledge your biases.
