Microaggressions are ways that people unintentionally exclude and alienate others. Even though they may be unintentional, they inflict harm. Dr. Terri talks to Dr. Michael Baran, social scientist, researcher and co-author of the new book, “Subtle Acts of Exclusion: How to Understand, Identify, and Stop Microaggressions.” Dr. Baran states that while overt racism, sexism, ableism, and other forms of discrimination are relatively easy to spot, you cannot neglect the subtler everyday actions that normalize exclusion in our society.
