We believe that it is important to ask deeper questions and really explore what triggers these stereotypes? Where do they originate? And more importantly, how do we begin to dismantle false narratives imposed onto marginalized communities? We referenced the following articles, which we encourage for you to review: "How To Fix Unconscious Racism?" published by the TheGurdian.com and "Responding to Racist Stereotypes" posted highered.com.

Furthermore, we acknowledged the mental and emotional health risks that emerge when individuals begin to believe the stereotypes that have been imposed onto them.
