Our individual blindness to bias is literally killing us. To better support the movements for minoritized communities such as Black Lives Matter and Gender Equality, we must deepen our understanding of our underserved neighbors.
The Museum of Science, Boston hosts this magical, scientifically-informed immersive experience designed by Playground of Empathy in collaboration with the Interdisciplinary Affective Science Lab at Northeastern University. This virtual offering is your chance to gain an entirely new perspective.
Together, we’re going to (virtually) walk in the shoes of someone who is Black, queer, and first-generation low income. Through this journey, our hope is you’ll gain insights into your own biases, learn how to take a stand for your beliefs, and become a stronger ally for our community. Join us and learn the value of someone else’s experience and become empathy.
