100%.

I was in the army and the equal opportunity classes use to be so awful. From 2008 to about 2015 every single annual class consisted of “what are some stereotypes” then everyone in the group lists off everything from “white people east casseroles and small funny” to “black people love chicken, and steal.”

Did absolutely nothing for solving any issues. I saw very little inherent racism. There was playful ribbing based on race but it was mutual and among friends.

What I did see a lot of and was possibly guilty of, was bias that could have affected people’s careers. I wish I had received more training on that.
