I defined them as everyday verbal, non verbal, or environmental slights that communicate hostile, derogatory, or negative messages to marginalized groups, often unseen and unacknowledged. I covered three categories, microassaults, microinsults, and micro invalidations, and how to respond by leading with respect, empathy, and understanding, remembering impact matters more than intention. If you experience or witness a microaggression, check in with the person and speak to an adult, and there is a reminder to use the reporting process shown on the slide. Your mission for next week is not to ignore it, because microaggressions can have a macro impact.
