Part III: Affirming Inclusion through Microaffirmations
Part 3: Microaggressions are harmful slights and insults that target others because of their ethnicity, gender, religion, or sexual orientation. While microaggressions serve as one of the many barriers to degree completion, micro-affirmations on the other hand encourages affirms inclusion and belonginess. These intentional, and sometimes unconscious actions known as microaffirmations cultivate inclusion in a way that everyone feels welcomed, valued, and encouraged. This action focused session explores strategies to promote an inclusive college environment through microaffirmations.
