Are You A Racist?

If you have read "Blink" then you know what this test is. I took it about 5 minutes ago and it told me that I have a moderate preference for white people over black people. I was immediately confused and ashamed because I have never considered myself a racist. Then I thought back to the book and I remembered that this test was measuring my subconscious thoughts towards race not my conscious feelings. The test is extremely eye opening and shows how much culture and history seep into our subconscious. It is definitely hard not to think of myself as a bad person at the moment but looking at the statistics of the test, I am accompanied by a majority of people. I would recommend taking any of the tests but the race test is especially intriguing. If you really want to learn more about the subconscious then read "Blink" because it is a fabulous book!
