The question “how often do you use generalizations?” is important for a person to uncover their own biases because it is something that people do not realize they do. After I listened to this podcast, I was sure to be aware to pay attention to what I am saying but to also listen to my circle of friends and family. This allowed me to reflect on what generalizations I heard. It has also pushed me to reach out to other teams/coworkers in my building to learn if I am saying things the culturally appropriate way or if I am not, what should I be saying instead. Being more aware of how/what I am saying has given me time to reflect and learn. This question and the others, have really helped me listen more to myself and those I surround myself with.
