Why are individual Filters easy to identify? They are the easiest to identify for three reasons: → First, we likely consciously agree with the Filter. → Another reason is because we can more easily see that the association the Filter is making might not be true; it might even be ludicrous. That makes it easy for us to challenge the Filter. → Lastly, while individual, these Filters are not unique. There are patterns of similar preferences found in millions of people. Yet we call them individual because these Filters don’t significantly correlate to identity groups or Frames. When they aren’t typically tied to one specific Frame or another, we don’t hesitate as much in identifying them or calling them out. Because individual Filters are easier to identify, talk about, and shift, they are a great starting point in our developmental process. #SpeedOfBias #CulturalCompetence #DevelopmentalProcess

Let’s define two terms that are often conflated, confused, or used interchangeably: bias versus inequities. Bias is an input while inequities are an outcome. We imagine bias as a seed that, with the assistance of key elements, creates the weeds we don’t want, which are the inequities. Bias gives favor or advantage to one group over another or one individual over another based on their identity. Because bias seeps into our thoughts and actions through our Filters, it’s helpful to remember the different types of Filters. If a leader were to hire someone because they wear purple polka dots to an interview and the leader’s Individual Filters then create a positive association for them, that one Filter-driven decision, while still illogical, is just one drop in an ocean and doesn’t add to the ripple effect that a Systemic Filter would because there isn’t a broader pattern of advantage for people who wear purple polka dots—or, for that matter, of disadvantage for those who don’t. It’s when our bias is fueled by our Systemic Filters that we contribute to the wave of inequities if we are unable to check and challenge those Filters. Inequities are evidence of the patterns of bias driven by Systemic Filters. They show a lack of parity in results or outcomes observable on a larger scale, after the fact. How have you experienced, or unconsciously contributed to, patterns of bias that have led to greater inequities? #SpeedOfBias #DEI #CulturalCompetence

The answer here is that organizations must first develop their individual employees in order to achieve greater equity and see real results. Unless we develop the individuals in our organizations and address the bias-laden Filters at play in our organizational structures, real transformation will remain ever elusive.
Our systems across the board churn out disparities. From health care to criminal justice to our economic systems, the inequities are clear across a wide variety of groups and identities. At a more local level, organizations across all industries and sectors still rarely, if ever, achieve parity in representation, especially in leadership. It’s not that organizations aren’t trying. But for decades, DEI professionals have been hard at work initiating strategies, programs, and organizational change work with little to no tangible results, stuck in tractionless transactions and unable to transform their organizations.

Have you ever heard of the Platinum Rule? ✨ “Do unto others as THEY would want done unto them.” Unlike the Golden Rule, "Do unto others as you would like them to do unto you," the Platinum Rule asks us to stop and consider how others might feel about a given interaction, rather than centering our behaviors on what we would want. In DEI work especially, it is critical to consider others and their Filters. This is precisely why the Platinum Rule can be such a powerful guide to help us engage with others more effectively, especially across differences.

In order to ensure we aren’t committing microaggressions, we must look at the four types of Filter harm that cause microaggressions: Filter associations, lack of associations, lack of exposure, and partial consciousness. Here are some quick strategies for how to address each. ⤵️ > Filter associations: Because we may consciously disagree with a stereotype, we most likely won’t know if or when we have a specific stereotypical association. What we can do is consciously, actively challenge it with an opposing association. We can also actively counter it when we see it represented in the media. Reject the stereotype, and replace it with the positive association consciously. > Lack of associations: Watch for the telltale sign of a lack of association, which is surprise. Challenge yourself to consider the possibility of the new association. And if someone tells you their reality, even if it’s different from yours, believe it, don’t challenge it or them. > Lack of exposure: Learn, build your awareness, and get more information. Reading both fiction and nonfiction about different groups or watching movies that represent different groups helps you gain awareness, and it’s easy to do. So try to avoid putting the responsibility on others by asking them to teach you about their difference. > Partial consciousness: This is really about lacking the ability to respond effectively. So, ensure you don’t try to change your approach if you can’t answer in the affirmative all of the three questions (capable, comfortable, consequences). When you can’t, then use the three steps for compromise (continue, cite, clarify), and you’ll be much less likely to offend. Being an ally requires an investment in personal development. #SpeedOfBias #CulturalCompetence #Allyship
