Your racial bias is subtle, but not invisible. It has real effects. That means it's findable, and it's even kind of treatable. Learn how to actually assess your own levels of racial bias. (No silly computer test necessary.)

The Implicit Association Test sold us all on a neat story that wasn't totally right. As it turns out, the test that introduced the concept of implicit bias to the world is kind of a sham.

The IAT doesn't actually measure prejudice; it's been debunked and rejected by experts; and the test's creators have even backtracked on all of their original claims... but for some reason, it seems like nobody knows that. We need to face the facts and correct course.
