2 Do Now… On a Separate sheet of paper answer the following questions: Based on last class or your previous knowledge describe what diversity is. In your own words, What is Harassment? What are some different forms of Harassment?

3 What is Harassment?? Harassment is when hurtful or upsetting things are repeatedly said or done to someone. Harassment CAN: Involve physical violence or verbal abuse Include damaging or stealing an individual’s possessions Involve excluding people by encouraging others to not have anything to do with them; spreading rumors, etc.

4 Why Do People Harass Others? Some people believe that it is OK to bully people who are different from them. They may pick on people from minority groups, such as people with disabilities, people from different races and cultures, or people who are attracted to the same sex. They may pick on people who do not conform to stereotypes of what it is to be 'cool' They may pick on people who are different because they are smaller, quieter, brighter, have different values

5 Why Do People Harass Others? Bullies often target people who seem vulnerable and less able to protect themselves. Sometimes people have grown up with violence or harassment in their lives and have come to believe this is a normal way of relating to others. The HARASSER has low self-esteem and this is their way of making themselves feel better.

6 Effects of Harassment Humiliation Emotional Distress Poor school/job performance Unpleasant school/work environment Depression

7 Sexual Harassment Sexual harassment is unwanted and unwelcome behavior, or attention, of a sexual nature that interferes with your life and your ability to function at work, home, or school.

10 Examples Mary is a student in Mr. Smith’s history class. Mr. Smith is everyone’s favorite teacher, but he has started to make Mary feel uncomfortable. He asks her to come to his room alone after school to discuss her schoolwork. When she shows up, he only talks about how pretty she is and once or twice he put his hand on her knee. He always asks for a hug before she leaves. He is now suggesting that they hold these after school meetings at a café in town. He tells her that she must continue to attend these extra discussion sessions if she wants to earn a good grade in his class. Luis gets constant attention from a particular group of girls in his high school. They send him sexually explicit notes, blow kisses at him, and rub up against him in the hallway. They wait for him when he gets off the school bus and when he gets out of class. They always seem to show up wherever he is. Someone keeps calling his house, asking for him and then hanging up, and Luis is sure it’s those girls. He has even seen them drive by his house in the afternoon. At first, he thought it was funny, but it’s starting to embarrass and frustrate him. He’s started to avoid going out so he won’t have to see them, and he’s pretended to be sick a few times so he didn’t have to go to school. Diana’s school soccer team coach is constantly telling her sexual jokes and making suggestive comments. During practice, he whistles and winks at her when she runs by him. Diana told the coach that his behavior makes her uncomfortable, but he responded by saying that she needs to learn how to accept compliments. Recently, he showed her a calendar of bikini-clad female athletes and told her she is sexy enough to pose for such a magazine. She is thinking of quitting the soccer team just to avoid the coach.

12 What Can You Do? What are ways that you can prevent and/or stop harassment from occurring? What does it mean to be an Upstander? An “upstander” is someone who recognizes when something is wrong and acts to make it right. When an upstander sees or hears about someone being bullied, they speak up. Being an upstander is being a hero: we are standing up for what is right and doing our best to help support and protect someone who is being hurt. In many ways, this is another word for being socially responsible. “Knowing what's right doesn't mean much unless you do what's right.”
