Got Racism? - 0 views

    This article was written by Ann Coulter who is a conservative legal correspondent for Human Events and she writes a popular syndicated column for the Universal Press Syndicate. This article contains heavy bias on the idea of racism.

George Zimmerman, Not Guilty? | Power Line - 5 views

  •  
    This is not so much an article, but it gives you some different opinions and stories that I thought were interesting.
  •  
    I do think this article has bias. It is a fairly conservative publication gloating about the witness statement and shaming other usually considered credible publications for how they have covered the statement. I find it interesting.

Harvard Implicit Association Test - 3 views

    This is the Harvard IAT. It reveals some of our unconscious biases. I give this to you so you can see that many of the things we react to are unconscious. This is not to say we are sexist, racist, ageist etc., but to show that society contributes to what we believe and shape many of our perceptions unconsciously. I'll post some Disney videos as well to show how young this training begins. I'd also encourage you to watch the video post "A Girl Like Me" with the Clark Doll studies in it. It begins to answer where ideas of raceism and sexism and stereotypes come from. VERY FEW people score in the neutral ranges on all these tests. I flat out couldn't be more biased on work/gender. I have no idea where that came from. But these are interesting and revealing to take. I hope you will take these.

    To go with how unconscious bias is created, this is a 50 minute film that documents how Arabs have been villified in America by Hollywood for over a century. It is very well done and great to watch as we come to understand how stereotypes and perceptions are created.

Zimmerman Opens up about Trayvon Martin killing - 7 views

  •  
    Bias article about the case, favoring Zimmerman. Allows him to plea his case and apologize for what happened.
  •  
    Goes well with the "What if George Zimmerman Were Black?" article

When they do not all look alike: Using identity to reduce own-race bias - 1 views

  •  
    This is interesting because it's an experiment. It's not something we intentionally do but there's a psychological reason behind it
