Join Clayton, a Diversity Business Partner at Google, as he reflects on the messages he’s received about race and unconscious bias within and around him. Clayton shares: “Whiteness to me means seeing that I have real work to do with other white folks for us to as much as we can, strip off the blinders."

Stand shoulder to shoulder in Virtual Reality with Clayton as he discusses his journey to understand his racial identity and travels to his childhood homes of St. Louis, MO, and Ashley, IL, and to his current home of San Francisco, CA.

Made in partnership with Light Sail VR.
