Implicit Association Test

I think that this test kind of showed that we might be brought up to see things a certain way. That our unconscious minds can control our unconscious actions; or something of that nature.

In the back of our minds, we might have some kind of preferences with certain races. I think kids growing up these days might have an unconscious prejudice towards people of the Arabian nation.

I was not aware of some of the prejudices in my unconscious mind, although I think it was more me associating races as foreign other than my own.

I really don’t think I am prejudiced against anybody or a certain race. So, in my mind nothing changed, but it did show me how I unconsciously associate some races.
