Hints and Tips for Culturally Intelligent Interaction Lissa Schwander & Elisha Marr Department of Sociology & Social Work

Breakout Groups Why are you here? Have you found yourself in (or witnessed) situations with students or co-workers where you feel that you have said something culturally insensitive OR have been the recipient of a culturally insensitive comment? Make a list

Microaggressions Subtle, stunning, and often automatic exchanges in which the receiver is overlooked, under-respected, or devalued because of one’s group membership (e.g. race, gender, sexuality). Paraphrased from Derald Wing Sue, Ph.D. Teachers College, Columbia University

Microaggressions We have been socialized into dominant cultural beliefs. Consequently we ALL have biases. Often invisible and unintentional. Implicit is as harmful as explicit.

Microaggression Examples Stereotypes: over-simplified generalizations made without acknowledgement of individual differences

Microaggression Examples Alien in Own Land: Assumption that Asian and Latino Americans are foreign born.

Microaggression Examples Colorblindness: Minimization or avoidance of acknowledging racial differences.

Microaggression Examples Pathologizing Cultural Values/Communication Styles: The notion that values and communication styles of the dominant culture are the ideal.

Microaggression Examples Ascription of Intelligence or Talent: Assumption that a person has a certain level of intelligence or talent based on their perceived race.

Tips Speaker Be open to being wrong. Know yourself Know others Receiver Speak up Pick your battles Assume the best in people

Return to Breakout Groups & Apply Tips Speaker Be open to being wrong. Know yourself Know others Receiver Speak up Pick your battles Assume the best in people

Applications Possible Microaggressions Are you an international student? Do your people live in teepees? I just love how your people do your hair. Alternatives What city do you call home? Tell me about yourself. Your hair is beautiful.

Applications/Advice Leave assumptions and broad generalizations out of questions/statements. If you are unsure if it is a microagression, question whether this is something you would say to a person in the dominant group. If not, it might be a microagression. If accused of a microagression, avoid being defensive but use it as a teachable moment. Even if we did not intend to offend someone, the interpretation is more important than the intention.
