Respect Is Only Human : A Response To Disrespect And Implicit Bias

RESPECT IS ONLY HUMAN - a Response to Disrespect and Implicit Bias presents the idea that respect for self and others, sense of justice, equity and fairness, acceptance of difference among people on the basis of race, ethnicity, gender and gender orientation, nationality, religion, and physical and mental disability, will help to eradicate implicit bias and lead to the equitable treatment of all people. In light of the violence that is perpetrated against people because of a particular race, because they may belong to a particular religion, may be part of the LGBTQ community, may experience mental illness, or may have a physical disability, there is an urgent need for us to recognize that it is disrespect that underlies all of these behaviours. By identifying that implicit bias is based on our disrespect for ourselves and others, we can develop ways of reducing and ultimately eradicating implicit bias through embracing respect in all aspects of our lives. This book presents many how-to methods, as supported by experts in the field, which teens and young adults, as well as older adults, could adopt to make respect the foundation of communicating with others. It also presents a wealth of resources on the subject.
