Can we officially do away with the phrase “implicit bias” in 2020? Please? Pretty please?

Can we FINALLY just call it what it is? It’s racism. Can’t we finally just say racism when we actually mean racism?

It’s sad that having this stance in academia makes me “radical” 🙄
Part of institutional racism is white supremacist power demanding that we don’t actually say the word “racism” when it’s what we’re actually talking about.

If hear me say the phrase “implicit bias” in person, know that I’m codeswitching/in performance mode 👀😂 #BlackintheIvory
Join me in telling these institutions NO. I will call this what it is. If you aren’t comfortable with me doing that, let’s sit down and talk about why.
Let me be clear. Admin, managers, CEOs, supervisors, et al resisting the use of the word “racism” is racist.

They are centering their comfort over Black, Indigenous and POC liberation.

We aren’t going to accept that anymore. #HowToBeAnAntiracist
