Did you know that unconscious prejudice impacts as much as 95 percent of the population? We tend to trust people who look, act, and believe the same way we do, and you may be aware of some of these prejudices in yourself. But did you know there could be other prejudices that you aren’t even aware you have impacting your behavior? 

Implicit bias impacts all of us, and it can play a major role in upholding systems of oppression. Read on to learn more about implicit biases and how they impact people with disabilities in particular.

What Is Implicit Bias?

In simplest terms, an implicit bias is an association, belief, or attitude you don’t realize you have. This unconscious bias can be positive or negative, but it usually isn’t based on any objective evidence or truth. You can hold an implicit bias toward any social group, including people of different races, gender identities, sexualities, abilities, economic classes, and more.

The thing that makes a bias implicit is that it operates on a completely unconscious level. We all have implicit biases, both positive and negative, that impact how we interact with the people around us. Uncovering and dismantling these biases takes a lot …

We, as citizens of the world, have a responsibility to work together toward a better future for all of us. In today’s interconnected world, it has become increasingly clear that we are all connected, and our actions can have a profound impact on the lives of others, both locally and globally.

In recent years, there has been a growing movement towards global citizenship, and the recognition that we are all part of a larger community. This movement recognizes that we all have a role to play in shaping the world we live in and that by working together, we can create a more just, equitable, and sustainable future for all.

As an environmentally-conscious consumer, you may have noticed a lack of options when it comes to clothing that aligns with your values. It can be frustrating to try and find apparel that not only looks good, but also sends a positive message about the planet. That’s where we come in. Our custom-printed apparel company specializes in creating clothing specifically for climate activists, and we’ve got just the thing for you: environment t-shirts.

In society today, it can often feel like everyone is divided, and it’s hard to agree on anything. This is why something as simple as a piece of clothing can provide the foundation for progress and finding common ground.

But let’s take a step back. If everyone already agreed with the message, there would be no need to promote it on a t-shirt. The fact is, many people either willfully ignore the impact that climate change has had–and will continue to have–or actively disagree with the premise that the globe is experiencing an unprecedented rate of rising temperatures. It’s therefore important to deconstruct why this is, to help develop better strategies for building momentum and influencing people to see the opposing view.
