RacialMicroaggressions

Racial Microaggression is right in front of us, but most of us don’t recognize it. When an Asian-American student is commended for speaking in English fluently because his skin color made it seem otherwise or when a white woman is seen clutching her bag tightly when she sees a black man next to her are just a couple of instances of that takes place every day.

Despite an increased awareness of racial microaggressions in academia and the public, institutions rarely take proactive and effective approaches to address them.
