Last week, Oprah had a show about Racism.
It stirred a lot of controversy.
A man came on the show who developed a test (YOU can take) that identifies whether you prefer white people to black or black people to white.
The test was created by Harvard profs who believe the test does NOT lie.
I took the test today and found out (as liberal as I thought I was) to be more favorable towards white people.
I thought I was very accepting towards all races...and still do...but they test showed otherwise.
Anyway, I strongly agree that if we don't talk about racism then it will continue to happen.
This test is a step towards the right direction.
Racism only stays alive in silence.
Stop the silence!

******LET ME JUST CLARIFY. THE MAN WHO DEVELOPED THIS TEST (WHETHER YOU BELIEVE IT OR NOT) FEELS THAT EVERYONE HAS A RACIST TENDENCY. THIS IS WHY HE BELIEVES YOU EITHER PREFER WHITE OR BLACK. THIS IS HOWEVER NOT MY BELIEFS AND IF YOU NEED CLARIFICATION, YOUTUBE: OPRAH, RACE SHOW (IAT).*****

Hey Nicholas-Sean, haven't checked it out yet to see if they are your words or theirs but "A man came on the show who developed a test (YOU can take) that identifies whether you prefer white people to black or black people to white."
Either way won't that make you prejudice?
