Another "Are You a Racist" test.
The other day I saw an "Are You a Racist" test on this site, so while on the MSNBC website a little while ago, I stumbled upon this little ditty. Apparently an Implicit Association Test can tell whether you have a prefernce towards white or black people.
I don't really know how pressing a few keys on the keyboard as fast as you can would possibly show a preference, but I took the test anyway.
Low and behold, here are my results...
Your data suggest a slight automatic preference for African American compared to European American.
I found it slightly interesting, but what do I know. Im just an ignorant man. So give it a try and tell me what you think.
There are also other tests for other races and religions. Take a test drive.

An amature does it till they get it right,
A professional does it till they can't get it wrong.

took the gender-science and the gay-straight one. Interesting

Life is essentially one long Benny Hill skit punctuated by the occasional Anne Frank moment.

Your data suggest a moderate automatic preference for African American compared to European American.

That test was a little on the racist side itself. No fair! Plus I kept getting the answers wrong...

Sometimes I feel I am racist, cause when we drive through the bad side of Nashville to get to downtown from the mall. I lock my doors, but I really wouldn't call that racist. I'd call it ghettoist. lol

I think most white people sublimely associate people of color with criminal behavior. I think Kelly locking her car doors in certain neighborhoods is more of a reflexive action than one of a racist. We need to realize how deep-seated and subconscious our bigotry is and fight it every day. I try to remind myself everyday that assholes and jerks have no color barrier.
