Abstract
Individuals are complex. Labels are simple. The goal of this interactive diversity training session is to deconstruct the labels and marks created by society. Participants and presenters will first take a journey through the labels experienced during their life. Through this we hope to increase awareness and create a consensus that labels don't always apply. Through this session we hope to discourage the application of labels in regards to one's race or ethnicity.
