# R.A.C.E. written by Tommie Johnson
Categories: [Diversity & Inclusion](https://flagshipinc.com/category/diversity-inclusion/)
Tommie is one of the founding members of the IDEA Group at Flagship.
For our first meeting, he shared an original piece with us about unconscious bias and how difficult it can be to UNLEARN that which is learned as we challenge ourselves to be more accepting of diversity and actively encouraging inclusion in the workplace and at home.
