Cultural Humility (complete)

“Cultural Humility: People, Principles and Practices,” is a 30-minute documentary by San Francisco State professor Vivian Chávez, that mixes poetry with music, interviews, archival footage, and images of community, nature and dance to explain what Cultural Humility is and why we need it. The film describes a set of principles that guide the thinking, behavior and actions of individuals and institutions to positively affect interpersonal relationships as well as systems change. These principles are: • Lifelong learning and critical self-reflection • Recognizing and changing power imbalances • Developing institutional accountability More than a concept, Cultural Humility is a process of communal reflection to analyze the root causes of suffering and create a broader, more inclusive view of the world. Originally developed by Doctors Melanie Tervalon and Jann Murray-Garcia (1998) to address health disparities and institutional inequities in medicine, Cultural Humility is now used in public health, social work, education, and non-profit management. It is a daily practice for people who deal with hierarchical relationships, changing organizational policy and building relationships based on trust. The film tells stories of successes and challenges, and the road in between for those working to develop partnerships among community members, practitioners and academics. It encourages us to realize our power, privilege and prejudices, and be willing to accept that acquired education

    In my field (Clinical Psychology) the term “cultural competence” is used quite often. I’ve had a nagging feeling about the term not sitting well with me, and this documentary put words to that feeling in a beautiful and easily understood way. I plan to share it with my classmates. Thank you!

    Yes, please. The film was produced to teach about Cultural Humility and its application in the fields of Education, Research, Health, Social Work, etc.

    This is an excellent documentary, a teaching tool for reflection amongst students and institutions. Reflection, and realization of a possibility for understanding. This is a lesson in compassion and connectedness to others who are not the same. We can always assume that someone else is either exactly the same, or that we know what they are going through. Communication is key and wisdom circles.

    8% of our DNA is originated from viruses. Some of this viral dna is responsible for making it possible for the placenta to fuse with the uterus. So not all viruses out the is trying to kill us, some even end uo helping us.

    this channel is very educational. I was hoping you would say rabies kept watching it till the end to see when you’re gonna say it. although there something I wanted to point out. You normally have a long time to treat yourself before symptoms occur however it depends where you are bitten, if you’re bitten in the face it’s over go to the hospital NOW! Also don’t trust any pet. If they are infected a nice dog could still remain nice or become even nicer.

    adding some more details to your comment would be pretty good.i mean you have 500 characters so spend them.

    I meant that his first comment was mean but relatively calm, But his second was all sudden and ‘loud’(ALL CAPS) and he just suddenly got aggravated like a girl on here period. Basically, I was comparing marsmac007 to an outraged female on her menstrual cycle.

    I hope you mean the top part of his comment.

    The bottom part is true though, greenday is pretty bad.
