Diversity is being invited to the party : inclusion is being asked to dance -- I think I'm a pretty good dance partner : is this book for me? -- I know the cha cha, isn't that like the Charleston? Aren't we all the same? -- With the right music, you can get anyone on the dance floor : what messages are you sending about who's included? -- So you were a little offbeat; it isn't the end of the dance; how to recover when you've stepped on your dance partner's toes -- What's everybody staring at? Nobody's perfect when they first learn to dance : the BASICS of cultural competence -- Are you sure he's our waiter? I think he's the band leader : how is your lens shaping what you see? -- He's black. What do you mean he can't dance? Check for your biases when things get bumpy -- Dancing with Peggy McIntosh : breaking the thirteen deadly habits of workplace oppression -- White people have always been center stage : understanding white privilege and other forms of unearned privilege -- Five old dance moves that white people do : updating your dance moves to support the success of black people at work -- The warm up is over, now for the big dance move : biasproofing your organization's systems -- Sometimes cutting in is the right move : using your privilege to interrupt bias.
