Google Immerse VR videos investigate race, diversity, and identity by exploring how real people interact with the world and how the world interacts with them. Join Dezzie, a UX Designer at Google, as she shares how racial identity, bias, and systematic racism impact her and her family everyday. “You can't talk about racial identity without talking about racism."
Stand shoulder to shoulder in Virtual Reality with Dezzie and explore her challenges, successes, and sense of identity as you travel with her around Paris and back to her childhood home.
