3. Seeing people for who they are rather than who they are not.
4. Give everyone the benefit of the doubt until or unless shown otherwise.
5. Mind the way you approach certain topics to prevent offensiveness. ]]> 2021-08-06 00:54:26 UTC https://padlet.com/yaexchanges/ybjh28rdxoic3wi1/wish/1670523972 Let's Avoid Stereotyping https://padlet.com/yaexchanges/ybjh28rdxoic3wi1/wish/1673637373 1. Be kind and gentle in your approach as well as open-minded, a person is not always what the world makes them out to be.
2. Dig deeper than the surface level, be open to having intricate conversations to better understand and know a person.
3. Always remember that everyone holds a personality that is exclusively their own, no two people are the same!
4. Be open to diversity and change as well as uncomfortable conversations (this is a learning process, it will take time and stepping out of your comfort zone)
