This reveals an implicit bias that exists, because they aren’t identifiable, they are more covert. They are even in people that aren’t explicitly racist, or trying to be racist. A way to find these biases is the IAT, or the Implicit Associations Test. The test uses a series of photos and adjectives to categorize them, then flips the associations. It measures how long it takes to execute they keystrokes of the person, to test for a bias on a much smaller scale, such as milliseconds. These biases can be dissected and boiled down to similarity-based, or behavioral based. Similarity based involves comparing the state of mind of the individual to universal racism, and behavioral discusses how the IAT and the compares to real life. The IAT also has some holes in it. Many other factors play into how much a Caucasian person makes eye contact with an African-American. Also, a study was done with the same shooting study, and then had the participants take the Race IAT, and found no correlation between the results. Even in the modern world, where racism is openly denounced, racism can still exist, and it might be harder than ever to stamp
