@AlamedaCTC @SFBayFerry @alameda I drove by yesterday so I could know where I would be going, it looks beautiful!

How do you appreciate the woman in your life?

[Kimble Talley @kimbletalley]

Fear and Envy. Watch the video https://t.co/2HgdEpV4dx, where Tim Wise describes how most experience of black are either through fear or envy. What’s your experience?

[Kimble Talley @kimbletalley]

I have lived my life maneuvering in two worlds, what about you? Can you go a day or week without seeing someone who’s black or someone who is different than you?

[Kimble Talley @kimbletalley]

My daughter is starting a new school where she will probably be the only black student. I do consider the school diverse! She told me that a young girl walked by and smiled. She said “I want her to be my friend.” A simple smile can go a long way. Acts of kindness even further.

[Kimble Talley @kimbletalley]

How many black people you know? If you could go over there house right now for dinner, who would you call? Examine who your friends are and why?

[Kimble Talley @kimbletalley]

@rebeccachilali I hope you noticed who or who wasn’t included on my list. This makes a big difference when teams lack diversity. We often admire those who are similar to us and this can impact who’s invited to participate.

[Kimble Talley @kimbletalley]

Take a few minutes and do this exercise. Jot down 10 people you admire. (Stay tuned for more...)

[Kimble Talley @kimbletalley]

Grab the list you made. Who’s on that list? Are there any minorities? Women? How diverse or different is the list from who you are? Here’s mine!

@GrandCanyonNPS I can’t wait to bring my kids!

We all have implicit bias. Seek ways to learn more. Is there a training, community event or tool you can access? Invite a friend, family, or a colleague! Take a Implicit Association Test and forward to a friend or family member https://t.co/O4b0QTPTkL

[Kimble Talley @kimbletalley]

We all have implicit bias. There are many ways to debias oneself. Take time to see those who are different in a positive way. We are impacted by stereotypes we receive from the media, our family, etc...(constantly). Embrace the positivity!

[Kimble Talley @kimbletalley]

We all have rich traditions and beliefs (they may be old or even new) but they make us who we are. Saying, “I’m Color blind” ignores this richness. Embrace the color and the uniqueness every one possesses even if you don’t understand or agree.

[Kimble Talley @kimbletalley]

We all have implicit bias. There are many ways to debias oneself. Consider creating “real” relationships with those who are different. It’s one thing to “know of” someone. What action can you take today to take your experience to the next level?

[Kimble Talley @kimbletalley]

We all have implicit bias. There are many ways to debias oneself. For today, consider the impact of difference. Who do you know? How do you know them? How do you learn from them?

[Kimble Talley @kimbletalley]

In recognition of Black History month I’ll be sharing info, advice, tips, tools and so much more around Implicit Bias and Privilege ... many of us enjoy looking back, these tweets will balance things a little by sharing how can you move forward.
