    An expanded edition of the first practical, nonjudgmental handbook for dealing with microaggressions, featuring examples, sample scripts, action plans, a new discussion and activity guide, and up-to-date suggestions for creating a culture of belonging in the workplace. 
     
    Overt discrimination is relatively easy to spot. But the less obvious but more common actions that make people feel left out or stigmatized in our workplaces, commonly called microaggressions, can be hard to identify and even harder to deal with. 
     
    The author use a clearer, more accurate term: subtle acts of exclusion (SAE). After all, people generally aren't trying to be aggressive-usually they're trying to say something nice, learn more about a person, or be funny. Bring accused of aggression shuts the conversation down, when you want to open it up.   
     
    This book features examples, tools, sample scripts, and action plans to help readers prevent subtle acts of aggression from happening, or deal with them when they do. Updated throughout, this second edition features: 
     
    -	A greatly expanded chapter on "intentional acts of inclusion"-actions for creating a sense of belonging. 
    -	A discussion and activity guide ideal for book clubs and training sessions 
    -	A new concluding chapter, Hope for Humanity 
     
    Whether in the form of stereotypes, assumptions, backhanded compliments, or objectification, SAEs are damaging to our coworkers, friends, and acquaintances. This book is your friendly, accessible, non-judgemental guide to creating a welcoming workplace.

    In this captivating memoir, Stanley unflinchingly shares his tumultuous experience as an international graduate student in the American Midwest. His narrative weaved through a labyrinth of unexpected trials, crises, and cultural clashes as he grappled with the perplexing healthcare system, the haunting justice system, the intimidating immigration maze, and the bureaucratic intricacies of academia. 
    Through his triangular interactions with two “elite” students, he not only rectified his understanding of mainstream American culture but also delved into the depths of human relationships. The multi-layered emotional turmoil Stanley endured as he confronted the “devil” within and outside, mixed with the benevolence and insights he received from peers and fellows, resulted in his transcendence of the original “American dream.” 
    Along this journey, Stanley invites readers to reflect on universal themes of identity, resilience, mental health, and spiritual growth. 
    Fantastic and uncompromising expression of what it means to be an immigrant to the US today. Essential reading for anyone considering immigrating or who has already immigrated and finding it unexpectedly difficult to assimilate into US culture. As a third culture kid and hidden immigrant, I wish I’d had this book decades ago. Its insights would have saved me years of heartbreak, loss and sorrow. — Andrew Indahl, civil rights attorney, UCLA graduate 
    In a land where the coffee is strong and the health insurance is weak, the author navigates friendships like a tightrope walker — balancing between cultural faux pas and the fear of being misunderstood. Love was a puzzle with missing pieces, and every legal form felt like an existential riddle. Yet, through each cringing trial, he discovers that the quirks of human behavior are the threads that weave us all together, regardless of the results. — Alfred Olivas, STEAM Education Consultant, former expat in Asia
