Robert Livingston of the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University and Brian Drwecki of the University of Wisconsin conducted studies that examined white college students who harbored either some or no racial biases. And they knew this to be true by what evidence?

And why not conduct the same study among blacks?

their cognitive propensity to resist negative affective conditioning," ... change may require reconditioning of the negative associations that people hold. I would like to advance the thesis that, if peoples' "negative associations" are justifiable, that if, in fact, they are based on valid observation and experience, then to NOT be "biased" is pathological. To NOT embrace negative conditioning is to discard one of the psychological mechanisms that has ensured our survival as a species. It is sick to expect people to choose the wrong door in the maze, get shocked, then choose the wrong door again. And again. And again. What this author proposes is that we are somehow wrong in associating being shocked with something negative.
Defining deviance downward.

The elevation of social and psychological studies to a level of science may be the biggest contributer to the downfall of western civilization and a return to dark ages.

Robert Livingston of the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University and Brian Drwecki of the University of Wisconsin conducted studies that examined white college students who harbored either some or no racial biases. What is remarkable about the findings is that only seven percent did not show any racial bias (as measured by implicit and explicit psychological tests), and that nonbiased individuals differed from biased individuals in a psychologically fundamental way -- they were less likely to form negative affective associations in general.
Check back when those students get out into the real world and their "diversity is our strength" programing wears off.

Very few people in this country, and I’m serious now, seem devoid of the obsession with race, which obsession is nothing but ignorance, and this applies to these so-called scientists, because it’s not race anymore, it is culture, stupid!

“it may also be difficult to change visceral attitudes toward racial groups by acknowledging that prejudice is wrong and wanting to change.”
In review of the above I must acknowledging my “prejudice” —wrong as it is — that these idiots have GOT to be white guys: suffering from some sort of severe guilt complex?
Why must they project this crap on the rest of us?
I like lima beans... never mind!
