The Learneezee cast will feature opportunities for our community of learners to discover alternative ways to improve their quality of life through the experiences of our guests. We also want them to take advantage of the community that we’re building and gather advice from its members about all types of subjects from advice on living as an ex-pat to how to live sustainably. We hope this can be a resource for self-improvement and sustainment of personal joy.

In this episode of the Learneezee Cast, Rico and Patrick talk about Schools opening up around the world in the middle of the COVID 19 Pandemic. Rico also so talks about one of his favorite Podcasts "How I built this." by Guy Raz.
We have our first expert interview with Diversity and Inclusion expert, Vira Mistry. We discuss a great deal about Vira's background and the types of issues she tackles in her courses and workshop.
We finally review one of the words of the Podcast, "Microaggression" and do our best to break down its meaning and to give examples.
Check Out the links below to learn more about Microaggression:
- Comment or action that subtly and often unconsciously or unintentionally expresses a prejudiced attitude toward a member of a marginalized group (such as a racial minority)
A digital photo project run by a Fordham University student about "racial microaggressions" features minority students holding up signs with comments like "You're really pretty … for a dark-skin girl."
