6 Ways Families Can Identify Hidden Biases in Families and Distorted Lenses

Children do not just inherit eye colour, routines or traditions — they also inherit lenses. In this short reflection, Dr Shungu explores six ways families can begin to identify the hidden biases, inherited beliefs and distorted narratives they may be passing on without even realising it. Using the Six Stages Framework and Building Bridges of Empathy, this video invites families to reflect on whose voices are missing, what stories are being repeated, and how empathy can be intentionally nurtured at home.
