Originally coined in 1970 by Dr. Chester Pierce, the term "microaggression" encompasses any subtle insult or informal degradation of a member of any socially marginalized group. While incidents of blatant racism and sexism might be deterred by zero-tolerance policies in the workforce, microaggressions still plague our daily interactions with colleagues and patients alike. In this paper we define and categorize microaggressions using real-world examples, describe their repercussions and provide ways to appropriately respond to microaggressions on a personal and institutional level.
这个术语最初由切斯特·皮尔斯博士于 1970 年创造，涵盖了任何对任何社会边缘群体成员的微妙侮辱或非正式贬低。虽然在工作场所，零容忍政策可能会阻止明显的种族主义和性别歧视事件，但微侵犯仍然困扰着我们与同事和患者的日常互动。在本文中，我们使用实际示例定义和分类微侵犯，描述其影响，并提供在个人和机构层面上适当应对微侵犯的方法。
