Gear Up reflections for Mod 3

How have you experienced microagressions in your time at Turing or in your life?

I haven’t noticed any micro aggressions at Turing. Everyone in our mod is respectful and deserving of respect.
If micro aggressions have occurred, then I was not present, or I was oblivious to them, which is a complete possibility.

What ways have you been able to address microagressions that you have seen happen?

I haven’t been exposed to this terminology before. What is defined here as a micro aggression I would probably write off to the aggressor being rude. I don’t know how I would address it should the occasion arise. I like to give people the benefit of the doubt, and probably wouldn’t say anything initially, to be honest. If it persisted, than it would seem

# Template: Module 4 Action Plan
*This is your deliverable from the [Job Search Strategies I session](https://github.com/turingschool/career-development-curriculum/blob/master/module_three/job_search_strategies_i.md)*
## Module 4 Goals
Be fluent enough to think about a language dynamically.
Create a functional, practical application that I can be proud of
### Strategy To Achieve Goals:
What role could you play in interupting microagressions for others?
The term microaggression appears to me to be an inaccurate catchall for actions that are too subtle to be
called racism, but cause some sort of percieved slight. Because of a flexible definition that means different
things to every individual it seems like a shitty word with no real use. One of the examples given is telling
a minority that 'they speak well.' That's not a microaggression. That's racism. Simply becuase it's not as
obvious as an ethnic slur shouldn't detract from the point that it still falls within that catagory. On the
other hand, asking someone 'where are you from' shouldn't be percieved as an aggressive act, unless it devolves
into a state that defeats the original question. At the point you're asking about someone's family, the question
is no longer 'where are you from,' but 'where are you ancestors from.'

CSS Layout Challenge
##### Challenge 1
Used an overarching div CSS tag to shape the boxes. Set the html order to put div3 before div2 so that float:right stacked correctly.
[Challenge 1](https://codepen.io/zaner/pen/VPyXYQ)
##### Challenge 2
Since div's are in block format, just specified where div2 and div3 needed to be placed.
