Most white Americans demonstrate bias against blacks, even if they're not aware of or able to control it. It's a surprisingly little-discussed factor in the anguishing debates over race and law enforcement that followed the shootings of unarmed black men by white police officers. Such implicit biases -- which, if they were to influence split-second law enforcement decisions, could have life or death consequences -- are measured by psychological tests, most prominently the computerized Implicit Association Test, which has been taken by over two million people online at the website Project Implicit.
Based on this data, it appears that whites in some states may exhibit higher levels of implicit bias than those in other states. The following map, courtesy of Project Implicit, shows the states with the highest level of implicit bias (high number, red) and lowest level of implicit bias (low number, blue). Gray represents states with a middle amount of implicit bias; Michigan is the median state. Overall, the map reflects the scores of 1.51 million individuals, ranging from a high of 99,660 test takers from California to a low of 1,722 test takers from Hawaii.

Exactly correct. The map is governed more by where all the black people live. The more blacks, the redder. To the Leftist, of course, this proves whites are racist. “Just look at the map!” they’ll say. “Southern states!”
As a Southerner, I can’t tell you how many times in my life I’ve been nearly assaulted by black males; stalked by them, and been given the “macho stare”. I’ve had two people rob me, both black males (they were found), and another who tried (got away). I now carry Mr. Smith and Wesson where ever I go.
I don’t want to shoot anyone, but all I ask is to be left alone. I don’t hate you, but just leave me alone, OK?
I’m not biased, my “give a f@$&” is permanently broken.
I’m a behavioralist. Act like you belong in modern society, not medieval. Conform to the social contract of behavioral expectations. If you don’t, life itself is going to beat you down....
Bastards. For these people, there is no escape. Even if you are not biased you are.
They hate the people who built up this country and want to eliminate them, after taking all their money, of course.
A very wise man once said: “I don’t like anyone who doesn’t like me.”
It seems to me that there is a high correlation between this bias score and the percentage of the population of that state that is black. Low scores in Maine, Vermont, Montana and the other rocky-mountain states, but high scores in La, Ms, Al, Ga, and so on. Could this just be an illustration of the old saying that “Familiarity breeds contempt”?
Then prove its desirable to resolve this, prove ending this bias is a good thing. It may simply be acquired wisdom.
I think you have something there.
All this escalating “white is bad” rhetoric is aimed at a White Majority to attempt making us lay down our wisdom, if they cant reduce our strength in numbers they will try to reduce our strength of RESOLVE.
I am not BUYING the LIE.
“Were it not for White people, Black people would still be slaves.”
Well, perhaps they’d be dinner for other black folks.
My bias has nothing to do with me being white. It has everything to do with how too many blacks feel they are owed something and demand the government (tax payers) furnish it.
“...but the likes of Al Sharpton and Obama pull them back into the mire...back into the jungle.”
Because it is financially lucrative and gives them a sense of power.
“It all is based on how fast you click the keys that correspond with a photo.>

Aha!!!!So the test itself is biased.
I’m 82 and can do just about everything I could always do,but my reaction time is often slower.
Guess they don’t like old folks.
.
all across america, blacks are racist, know it, and think they’re entitled to be racist.
3% responsible for 75%.
yup, that’s what their mantra is. soon they’re going to en masse try to do so.
Even the mighty Kreskin cannot look into my heart and determine what I think or if I hold any bias
I want off this idiotic planet...
Reckun a test is like a poll. Or worth about has much these days.
Your Result
Your data suggest little to no automatic preference between African American and European American.
As I suspected...
Thanks for the link.
ive always had a tremendous bias...against rabble rousing communist schmucks...
