Race and Ethnicity: Let’s Define Them!

Our racial and ethnic backgrounds play a significant role in shaping our individual identities and distinguishing us from others. In this course, you’ll explore how race and ethnicity differ. You’ll also spend some time identifying how your personal understanding of race and ethnicity influences your interactions with others in your community. By the end of this course, you’ll have a valuable addition to your personal glossary to help you engage in meaningful conversations.

The Culture & Belonging Glossary Series helps boost understanding and confidence around terms related to creating a culture of belonging in the workplace. These terms - which often come up in work conversations - are used to honor our identities and lived experiences.
