Understanding Implicit Bias and Overcoming It in Our Schools

During a recent edWebinar, hosted by AASA, The School Superintendents Association and AASA’s Leadership Network, Dr. Bryant T. Marks, Sr., Executive Director of the National Training Institute on Race and Equity at Morehouse College, explained how increasing awareness and then taking effective, data-driven action can result in more equitable treatment of diverse students.
