When the well-intentioned white person or faux “DEI expert” comes with the “we all have bias”, inform them:

Yes, we all have biases.
But, those biases are not equal.
Becos we don’t all have power.
The power to translate that bias into an outcome for those without power.

1/
Bias + Power = Badness

My bias may get someone uninvited from the cookout.

But a white person’s bias gets folks killed.
Whole communities drowned. Burned. Shot up. Set on fire. Sick. Deformed.

Destroyed.

2/
Implicit or Explicit, it’s not the bias I’m worried about as much as your unearned power - acquired through bloodshed, rape, theft, & genocide - to translate that bias to impact our lives, families, health, wealth, joy, & peace of mind.

THAT’s my concern.
