Thank you for sharing this information. When I went to college, I felt exactly the way Gabby did. Constantly having to explain or fight for diversity, and then being looked at to explain my own personal history.

Every time this man said Latinx another bullet was engraved into my body

Although some of the examples in the video show implicit bias in action, others are anything but explicit. I would suggest perhaps retitling the video to be about Institutional Racism.

I think what's interesting too, for any viewers for any background, is that implicit biases may be greatly different amongst different parts of the world. Obviously these demographics are based on American statistics considering the diversity - but it's interesting to look at. Some people might watch this and think, "well a majority of my school was latinx, asian, etc" and those groups moved up in education because the staff represented the students. Other's can relate to Gabi or Jo, watching there progress differenciate cause of race.

As an african american it was very difficult to Express myself in a African Cultural way in my experience in the classroom. Mass majority have to understand the ethnic differences that can defect an individual if he or she does not have a knowledge of self.

We dont choose authors based on their skin color!!!! Are you kidding me!!! Are we now supposed to fully commit to being racist???

This should be called SELECTIVE PERSPECTIVE in ACTION.

Latinax?

Our utopia is just around the corner

Isn't there a disproportional number of people based on ethnicity living in the U.S.? Couldn't this skew the numbers?

This is so extremely skewed it's marvelous as an example of this ideology's deliberate misinterpretation of every issue: 1. The use of the term latinx is a two-fer. It's an example of both white supremacist thinking by disparaging Spanish grammar as patriarchal and an attempt to queer the language by rendering the normal problematic. 2. The current notion that students must see themselves represented in the faculty and the curriculum in order to succeed has no basis, considering the experience of academically successful Asians who rarely have an Asian instructor or curricular representation, and considering the experience of millions of immigrants throughout the nation's history. The studies this assertion is based on are so methodologically flawed (see Dee & Penner as a prime example) they are embarrassing to read. 3. The term hispanic "abarca mucho y poco aprieta." Twin brothers emigrated from Hungary, one to the USA, the other to Argentina, where he started a family and then immigrated to the USA. The latter brother uses the term hispanic, and enjoys all the privileges that accords his family. The ancestors of Desi Arnaz, a Cuban, received the earliest land grants from Spain. Why do people of Spanish descent receive treatment that differs from Slovaks, Swedes, Greeks, Turks, etc? What EXACTLY is the point of the term hispanic? Whom is it intended to benefit? A Q'anjob'al speaking Guatemalan Mayan has nothing in common with a Spanglish-speaking Nuyorican, an Afro-Cuban revolutionary or a German-Chilean oligarch. 4. The assumption is absurd that the professoriate should reflect CURRENT population demographics when it takes a great deal of time to become a professor and the population has shifted enormously in a short period. By the 1960 census, the population was 87% European, 11% African, 1% Latin, 1% Asian. Exponential demographic change occurred from 1960 to 2019: 60% European, 18% Latin, 13% Black, 5.7% Asian, and 2.8% Other. 5. The disparities in transfer admission to Berkeley do not immediately indicate ethnic preference. We don't know how many white and how many hispanic applicants there were, nor do we know their GPAs and activities. Berkeley has actually cut in HALF the number of whites accepted from 1973 (13,587) to 2020 (6,590) and increased the number of hispanics by 855%! In 1973, 630 hispanics; in 2021, 6,022. See pages.github.berkeley.edu/OPA/our-berkeley/enroll-history.html The video presumes all applicants were equally qualified. Berkeley pays its diversity director, a hispanic woman, OVER $325000, and she complains of the "emotional toll." This is such a mess I'm embarrassed for USC to put out such ill-conceived drivel in the name of ideology.

Wouldn't this be considered systemic racism not implicit racism? I think it would have been more beneficial if the video started with a definition of what implicit bias is.

I find it really strange that, given the content of this video, the captions haven't been corrected and therefore discriminate against people with hearing loss. E.g. 1'30" the class discussed the only essay by Aladdin.

That's not biased? The number of books the read by PoC was directly in proportion to their demographic %. Black was literally about 13%.

What is "Latinx"? I've asked many Latinos and NONE of them want that term used. It's a term used by the wacky left. As for "the counselor...there could be a THOUSAND different reasons why he made the recommendations that he made. Some might be good reasons....some might be bad. To assume that it is because of RACISM is very presumptive and ridiculous. This whole video is racist.

Om shanti

"Latinx" lol

Last time I checked I was *Latina*

Lost me at “latinx”

I smell balogna.

Your counselor's bias (or your friend's or parents' biases, etc) has nothing to do with the degree you choose. Your life and actions are your choice. Stop blaming. If Race A has 100 applicants, but Race B only has 25 applicants, statistically the application of someone from Race A will be chosen.

This video is part of the problem. It's making assumptions, and presents situations in a comically incorrect way. Total trash, but I'm glad it is posted so that I can witness for my own eyes were people are getting their brains washed.

So.. why didn’t Gabi just choose a class that would benefit her?

This is systemic racism and explicit bias, not implicit. There's a difference.

Ai

Please don’t refer to Latinos as latinx. Thanks - a Latino

“Gabby is latinX” Haha stop using that silly term. Most Latinos are offended by it - you’d know this if you actually were more inclusive and talked to them

Pretty racist of Gabby not to relate to other people just because they have a different skin color

This is BS.

Lol wtf is this??

yo, this lowkey upset me. I hate that companies and school systems treat people different because of their appearance. Let me catch someone treating someone different because they are white, they gonna catch these hands. e.e

Your conclusions are biased. Let’s go off of your examples: just fire the people who were incompetent. It really doesn’t matter why they were incompetent; racism, stupidity, sexism, laziness, ignorance. I see the opposite happening in school now, and that can have a unforgivable impact on a kid’s success. Don’t try to “prove” their bias, just prove their mistake.

This is comically bad.

The school has "statistical differences in how students of different races and ethnicities are treated" ?!? I highly doubt that. We have had laws against this since the 1960's, the University is one of the most liberal places in America. What are they even referring to. There is Affirmative Action which is just explicitly racist, but that benefits (not actually) minorities (but not Asians) and so guess that's ok?? There are disparate outcomes because there are differences between people and between groups of people. Seriously people?!? Are you pretending to not be aware of this?? Who are you helping by doing this?

Stop saying Latinx lmao

One question! Percentage of population! And this debunks half your claims!
