Acknowledging one’s own privilege can be hard! This session we will reflect on our Implicit Association Test, (IAT), results within a privileged identity. We will discuss how to recognize our blind spots and be open to self-reflection about the places where we carry privilege and the opportunities for allyship.

To take an IAT please go to https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/takeatest.html and select a test on an identity where you are considered privileged in American society. If you have any questions please feel free to email me at e.stampp@wustl.edu.
