If you're doing a training about racial bias that specifically covers red-lining and history surrounding segregation after the Civil Rights Movement, and the training is for your regional civil servants, and it asks at the end how their institution could improve regional equity...
... wouldn't it be prudent to address your region's history of bias, segregation, and red-lining? Especially when you have such a duality of some of the oldest free Black communities in the state AND a "former" sundown town?
(Unfortunately, the answer is no, according to the people who created the training I attended today)
(When talking about the history of institutionalized racism they also mentioned nothing about the Chinese Exclusion Act, Japanese internment, nor everything that has happened to Native nations)
(And yeah it's only covering racism, no other -isms even though they're all intertwined)
