Are you looking for ways to discuss diversity and inclusion in the classroom? Look back to this chapter which describes an easy to run exercise which helps build empathy and understanding, from the book 100 Ideas for Active Learning (Betts & Oprandi, 2022). The exercise is based on advertisements, but can be applied in different contexts, too.
