I put on a peer support volunteer training a few times a year. One of the modules is on "Cultural Awareness" that comes from the perspective that each of us have our own unique traits and how, in many instances, we are not who we appear to be at first glance, that there is more to all of us than simple visual markers like skin color or gender. The point being that we can't use shorthand to define someone, we must allow the space for others to define themselves, no matter what culture a person may appear to be from. I'll be updating this module to include an additional step similar to the exercise in this story. Thank you!
