Recheck all of your biases

Usually said in response to someone saying check your privilege in response to a bias incident that involves more than one type of discrimination, one of which is a nonmainstream type of discrimination like Speciesism, this is said to remind people to keep all of their biases and privileges, including the ones that come from nonmainstream types of discrimination, in check before evaluating and or responding to bias incidents and an individual’s circumstances

Jamard: I heard that some guy and his Hispanic ex-girlfriend got into a custody fight over their pet dog. They gave the dog to the woman, even though she has a lengthy criminal record. They should have given it to the guy.

Owen: Hey. You’re a straight, Caucasian male. Check your privilege.
Jamard: Dude, recheck all of your biases. The woman is upper middle class, had a criminal record, and some of those charges were for neglecting to take proper care of their previous pets. She also had cheated on her ex-boyfriend with some famous street rapper from Miami, Florida. Would you care to enlighten me about how it is acceptable that a person with that type of background was given custody of the dog?
Owen: Point taken. You’re right.
