Worth a look if you like this type of thing.

–I agree. We should know what our own biases are.

A well written piece, and as always very well animated, from The School Of Life about bias that presents it not as a bad thing but as something everyone has, as part of life. It goes on to say that perhaps it’s time we understand our own biases and have society be more open about what biases they believe in, as institutions, etc..
