These implicit tests are extremely interesting. It can be really hard to come to grips with your racial preference and unknown biases. I felt a little stressed and confused throughout the test.
It's a bit odd because I never thought about race. I am one of those people who said "I don't see color" and didn't realize that was a negative thing. In taking those tests, I found out my preference is for black people, and I am white. Doing this training has put this subject on my radar and made me think about what trials non-white races went through in the past and go through today. I never realized there was such a thing as generational trauma. When talking with my friends who, in commenting about current events, reveal their biases, I can actually give them some counterpoints. I know I don't have it down 100%, but I am aware now of it's existence and importance. I still want people to know that I connect with what is in their heart, but now I am aware that their race may be important to them as well.
Discussion Decorum: Participants will treat each other with respect. When disagreeing or debating, focus comments on the facts and training content, not personalities. No personal attacks. Purposefully rude or derogatory language will not be tolerated.
