skin color prejudices the perceptions of jurors, police officers and even the ordinary student who volunteers in research at Stanford UniversityWe need a "genius" to tell us that?

Black people, especially those with very dark skin and kinky hair, are more likely to be linked to crime, handed stiffer punishments or even sentenced to death than lighter-appearing individuals, according to her research. Are they also more likely to have committed the crime? or does that not matter at all?

Oops, I pulled a Biden...that’s long past, not long bast.
Although long bast has a nice ring to it.

that’s strange, you would think that when you look at someone you wouldn’t even notice what color they are.
kind of like in the movie “no time for sergeants” with andy Griffith. he’s was told to treat wacs the same as men. and when he sees a wac he tell his friends “ ah caint tell if’n it’s a man or ah woman, all ah seez is them strips on thar arm”

Are they also more likely to have committed the crime? You're forgetting that she is a GENIUS

"Racial Awareness Studies"? OK,let me think...."that guy's white....she's black...that one over there looks Asian..."
Hey,maybe I can get one of these grants for myself! ;-)
To: 2ndDivisionVet
They could have spread that nifty sum of cash around to the demonstrators in Ferguson and done some good. Another race baiting professor’s racist study won’t accomplish nearly as much.

With friends like that, you don’t need enemies.

To: Zuben Elgenubi
Is this a reflection of how little true genius there is nowadays? Is there no one in medicine researching cures for life-threatening diseases? Maybe the MacArthur Foundation should take a hiatus from awarding grants until they find some real geniuses, instead of just giving them to people doing politically correct work.

I think the MacArthur Foundation is old Rockefeller money, so PC it is.
To: EDINVA; Zuben Elgenubi
Maybe the Nobel people should think of doing the same.

"Jennifer Eberhardt ... has found that skin color prejudices the perceptions of jurors, police officers and even the ordinary student " What did Jesse Jackson say (years ago) about Black youts walking behind him?
Another genius?
