Bias
One of the main points of the Harvard Implicit Association Tests was to illustrate the following:
The vast majority of people here in the United States believe that they are not biased, prejudiced and do not discriminate.
The conscious mind says — no bias — BUT — the unconscious mind does in fact, have a bias.
The majority of people in the USA, (even those members of the groups against whom bias and prejudice exist) have attitudes consistent with the "majority". This means — the majority of people here are biased in some way.
In other words — everyone, regardless of group membership, believes the "right kind" of people are those the culture defines as "right kind". (By the way — when individuals from the "out" groups have attitudes consistent with the majority in a culture, and those attitudes are detrimental to the "out" group, — it is called internalized oppression.)
Take several of the demonstration tests at the Harvard Implicit Association link. Make sure you take tests that have some relevance to this course. Then answer the following questions in a short paper.
