Re: White Perspectives on Racism in FIRST

I haven't seen outright racism, but I have seen socioeconomic disparities cause bias in how teams approach match discussions. Over the years I've learned to consciously be more inclusive, treating the underestimated teams like how I've learned to interact with introverts - sometimes with amazing results.

To be fair, somewhat, the OP says "POC" - which in many worlds means Point of Contact. I had to double-read it to interpret and understand what specifically was being asked.
