ATTENTION RACISTS!!!! HELP IS ON THE WAY!!!

Researchers Try to Cure Racism
By Brandon Keim January 20, 2009 | 8:25:42 PMCategories: Behavior




As the first African-American president in United States history takes office, researchers have shown that it may be possible to scientifically reduce racial bias.

After being trained to distinguish between similar black male faces, Caucasian test subjects showed greater racial tolerance on a test designed to to measure unconscious bias.

The results are still preliminary, have yet to be replicated, and the real-world effects of reducing bias in a controlled laboratory setting are not clear. But for all those caveats, the findings add to a growing body of research suggesting that science can battle racism.

"Any time you can get people to treat people as individuals, you reduce the effect of stereotypes," said Brown University cognitive scientist Michael Tarr. "It won't solve racism, but it could have profound real-world effects."

Tarr's findings overlap with other results suggesting that the key to reducing racial bias — at least in a short-term, laboratory setting — is exposure to people in personalized ways that challenge stereotypes. This is hardly a new notion: it's the essence of the contact hypothesis, formulated in the mid-20th century and the basis of integrated schooling.

But unlike carefully structured social mixing, with precisely controlled conditions of interdependence and equality, Tarr and others raise the possibility of a a lab-based shortcut to bias reduction.

Underpinning this research is the Implicit Association Test, used by psychologists to measure deep-rooted, often unconscious biases. During the test, subjects are measured on the time it takes to associate faces with positive or negative words. If, for example, someone more quickly associates negative words with minority rather than white faces, they're likely to have a bias — a bias that translates into a tendency to hire same-race workers, choose same-race partners, and find minority defendants guilty.

If the bias can be changed, perhaps the behavior will follow.

"The entire idea of neural plasticity is a new one. We didn't think that the brain was capable of change as we now know it to be," said Mahzarin Banaji, a Harvard University psychologist whose online Project Implicit has administered 4.5 million bias tests in the last decade. "The bias stuff we learn is heading in that direction, telling us that there is the ability to change."

"It's remarkable that our brain is so flexible that 10 hours of training will affect something that is the product of your whole life experience," said Tarr, who hopes his work will lead to race training for people working in potentially race-sensitive situations, such as police officers, social workers and immigration officials.

In a study published Tuesday in Public Library of Science ONE, Tarr's team put 20 Caucasian college students through ten hours of face-identification training, testing their ability to discern previously-seen from unknown faces. Students with the largest improvements in face memory also showed significant improvements on a variation of the Implicit Association Test.

According to Banaji, a brief talk about working for women suffices to reduce gender bias. City University of New York psychologist Curtis Hardin showed that having black experimenters administer a test produced lower bias scores among white subjects.

In one of the few attempts to measure bias change and brain activity, Princeton University psychologist Susan Fiske simultaneously presented test subjects with pictures of black people and vegetables. When asked what the person in the picture liked to eat, activity in the amygdala — a brain region that modulates fear — subsided.

"Amygdala activation goes away as soon as you start to think of people as individuals," said Fiske.

These results are promising, but it's too soon to say whether they're long-lasting, or will translate to real-world improvements in behavior.

"Our biggest concern is that if we have participants come into a lab and do some exercises, then the context is so specific that it may only work if they see an African-American in a lab," said Bertram Gawronski, a University of Western Ontario cognitive scientist. "It's really important that it's done in different contexts, and that people are repeatedly bombarded with counter-attitudinal information."

For at least the next four years, however, the United States will collectively undergo a real-world experiment in stereotype defiance.

"The first black president — that's going to have a huge effect on things that come to mind," said Ohio State University psychologist Richard Petty. "Instead of just negative associations, there will be all sorts of positive associations."

Let's just hope they last.

  2. Anonymous 5:19 P.M. is correct. Most whites who love diversity tend to live in communities which are 95 percent white. The only blacks they're exposed to are sanitized "magic Negroes" like Barack Obama and Michael Steele. They don't experience diversity up close and personal, like in an East L.A. barrio or in a Chicago South Side ghetto.

    The others are either a tiny handful of genuinely idealistic anti-racist whites, like Nikki, or they're BCLs like Portland Oregonian reporter Betsy Hammond, who published this self-hating drivel in the Oregonian in mid-January.

    P.S. - I hate to post anonymously, but too many people impersonate folks like Hooch and Jimbo!, so I have no choice.

  3. I understand about the anonymity.

    you know, I have heard this whole spiel about not experiencing diversity, as you put it, "up close and personal," for a number of years now - and it just doesn't wash with me.

    I have spent much of my life in extremely diverse areas either through living there or working there and I just don't agree. Most of the problems found in the areas you reference are not much different than those found in poverty stricken areas inhabited by a majority of whites. It's largely economical.

    Currently, I live in an area that is extremely diverse. Within a six square block area there are Hispanics, Blacks, Asians, Middle Easterners, folks from Germany, Ireland, Italy, and Pakistan. The crime rate is almost zero. The worst thing that has happened here in the last four years is that a woman was attacked in her driveway by a former boyfrined - both were white. Every once in awhile a lawn-mower gets stolen.

    Now, this isn't an "impoverished" area, but it's far from affluent. Most of us are struggling to make ends meet. What is probably unique about it, however, is that we all help each other. There are many here who have skills and they make those skills available to their neighbors. Need your furnace fixed - ask the guy on the corner. Need a tree cut down - ask the guy across the street. Need some chicken soup - the gal around the corner will take care of it. And, this all happens without regard to color or nationality.

    The main reasons, I believe, that this area has not turned into a "ghetto" or crime ridden neighborhood are 1) we won't allow it. We look out for each other, and we don't tolerate bullshit; and 2) There is no sense of hopelessness. We know we're not alone and that no matter what our children aren't going to go hungry or without clothes, or be placed in harm's way.

    I grew up in a couple of the roughest areas of the greater Miami area. You don't come up on those streets without seeing one whole helluva lot. The poverty, the hunger, the fear, and the lonliness of abject poverty transcends all other things - including what color your skin is or where you are from.

    I have spent the last decades working in the "barrio's" and "ghetto's" that you reference. I have walked the inner city streets in major metropolitan cities throughout the United States and spent a countless amount of time meeting diversity "up close and personal." And, I have yet come to understand what your premise is.

    The only conclusion to this that I have been able to reach about this argument of yours is that fear often leads to convoluted thought processes and hinders true comprehension. What is it, exactly, that you are afraid of?

    GO STEELERS!

  5. Nikki - the reason your "diverse" area works is because no race is overwhelmingly dominant.

    But take a look at Detroit. Blacks overwhelmingly predominate, and it is dysfunctional. Even the "respectable" blacks can't keep their hands out of the cookie jar - Kwame Kilpatrick for starters.

    Overwhelmingly Latino neighborhoods are more semi-functional, but the predominant lifestyle is severely degraded. Parking cars every which way, improper disposal of waste, overpopulation (transforming single family homes into rooming houses), loud partying at all hours - those are just the main problems. And why is it that non-white youth have such a unique propensity to form street gangs?

    I just don't like watching parts of America being transformed into a Third World country. America is supposed to be a leader, not a follower. Multiculturalism and turbo-capitalism have created astronomical and un-American gaps between rich and poor.

    BTW, we agree on the Steelers. A 9-7 team like the Cards doesn't belong in the Super Bowl.

    First of all...the name of the gang is "Crips" not CRYPTS. And all that this kind of post does is prove that you are not only a moron but probably a juvenile. The only times that I have been victimized is by white men - all of which demonstrated the same intellect that you seem to possess.

    (((So, integration works.)))

    But take a look at Detroit. Blacks overwhelmingly predominate, and it is dysfunctional. Even the "respectable" blacks can't keep their hands out of the cookie jar - Kwame Kilpatrick for starters.

    (((Look at the unemployment rate, the infrastructure, the poverty rate, etc. All of these things are contributors to crime and dysfunctionality. You can't look at just one factor. Poverty begets dysfunctional neighborhoods. Poverty is generally cyclical and very difficult to break. When you see your family living on welfare, hand-to-mouth, using the system, etc. - when you grow up that way you tend to engage in the same behaviors. Not everyone does this, but by-and-large that's what happens. You learn how to "get over" to get around the laws. Societal mores are meaningless in such a setting. It isn't about race. It's about poverty and oppression. It's about people being knocked down so many times that they don't bother to try and get back up. So...if you are going to try and make it a race issue - guess who it is that has been knocked down for generations. But, I don't see it as a racial issue. The same thing happens to whites who are raised under the same conditions. The difference is that whites have historically had more opportunities to pick themselves up by the boot straps than minorities have.

    There are sections in L.A,. Chicago, Detroit, etc. where the residents are predominently white and very disadvantaged. These areas are just as bad, just as dysfuntional as what you describe. People, in general, become dysfunctional when there is no hope.)))

    Overwhelmingly Latino neighborhoods are more semi-functional, but the predominant lifestyle is severely degraded. Parking cars every which way, improper disposal of waste, overpopulation (transforming single family homes into rooming houses), loud partying at all hours - those are just the main problems. And why is it that non-white youth have such a unique propensity to form street gangs?

    (((Street gangs have been in existence forever. Generally, they are found in the impoverished areas of big cities everywhere. They provide a feeling of power and belonging to the impoverished and disenfranchised - and they come in every color. It's pretty incredible what people will do in order to feel in control of their lives and their destinies, huh?)))

    I just don't like watching parts of America being transformed into a Third World country. America is supposed to be a leader, not a follower. Multiculturalism and turbo-capitalism have created astronomical and un-American gaps between rich and poor.

    (((I agree about the turbo-capitalism and those gaps. But, multiculturalism IS America. That's what we are all about.)))

  7. Hooch and Jimbo are most likely the same dude anyway. The same anonymous who did all the crying about Israel and Hooch are certainly the same person. Both make the same spelling and punctuation errors. Now the same person follows up on his own anonymous posts so he can have someone to agree with him. Very funny, has to be either VonWelfare or Ramsey both love to do that (yes, I am just guess now).

    Whomever impersonated "Hooch" was funny as hell. I knew it wasn't Hooch though immediately, his facts checked out. I think the Hooch impersonator was Sponge Bob Shit Pants.

  11. So there is this huge racism problem in America, Nikki? Why don't you ever post about reverse racism? Reverse racism is far more prominent than the other.

    Take all of the so called white supremacist leaders in America and every single person that follows them and you may get a number of a thousand or two. Yea, out of over 300 million. Give it up.

    The reality is, Obama was elected by white America. If racism was such a huge problem I can assure you that Obama would not have been elected. No president can be elected without the vote of the white male. It is impossible. Blacks only represent 13% of the population.

  16. "The bottom line is that the Republcians have become the party of special interests. "

    If republicans are the party of special interest, than what are these pork projects in the democrats portion of theft from the American people?

    "$650 million for digital TV coupons. Since when is it the government's responsibility to provide TV? Only in America would we allocate this much money for something so ridiculous. This is larger than the GDP of half the countries in Africa.

    $600 million for new cars for the federal government. Obama got a new ride, why not the rest of government. And why isn't this part of the money loaned in the auto bailout? I say let these bureaucrats do what the rest of America does when their cars get old. Live with 'em.

    $6 billion for colleges/universities – Here's an idea: Colleges and universities start lowering tuition instead of raising it every year.

    $50 million in funding for the National Endowment of the Arts. Pork Pocketchange.

    $200 million for the National Mall, including $21 million for sod. Why do we need a "National Mall"? Let them shop at Wal-Mart like the rest of America.

    $360 million to potentially be used to put on transsexual beauty pageants and erotic art shows.

    ACORN will receive potentially $4.19 billion. They are financing their next election with our money. And guess where you will catch Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton hanging out?"


    "I WILL NEVER VOTE GOP, EVEN IF MY MOTHER WOULD TURNED TO THE DARK SIDE AND RAN FOR OFFICE AS A REPUBLICAN."

    I'm glad you feel that the solution to our problems is more government control.

    Heavy Fed, I am thinking that you have no idea what the difference between a Republican and a Democrat is.

    Well, I'll explain it to any of you out there who haven't a clue. It's all based on the level of federal government control.

    Democrat - Most solutions to problems consist of federal agencies being created, etc. The federal government should act as "big brother", even though almost every single problem this country has is either related to laws imposed by the federal government or trying to fix a problem that the federal government caused. The ideal is not to have states rights but rather full federal government control and dictation of what will and what will not happen in America. If you don't like it, tough shit. There is no party who is more "pro establishment" than the democrats. They didn't used to be that way back in the 60's but they have morphed. The constitution is a "living breathing document" that should be changed with time. Freedom of speech is "conditional".

    Republicans - Believe in states rights and less Federal government control. States make their own laws and the Federal government keeps their nose out of it for the most part. This creates competition between the states and fosters an environment where if you don't like the laws in the state you live in, you can move to another state. You don't have to completely move out of the country like you would in the Democrats method. They agree with the federal government overstepping their bounds to some degree. The constitution should not be changed, freedom of speech is unconditional.

    Libertarians - Closest to the constitution. The federal government was put in existence for military protection, and that is it. The federal government does not have the constitutional right to make laws against the people, the states do. End most federal government programs and allow the states to govern themselves.

    That's it. It's pretty cut and dry. You are either pro big federal government or you are not. You are either pro states rights or you are not.

    you know wot, cunt...i don't fckn BELIEVE you!

    firstly: it's almost certain this bitch is a fckn yenta (a jew-ess!)

    as such, the chances that she lives any-where except in either a heavily-policed shtetl or an equally heavily-policed 'gated community' is extremely un-likely!

    (that's wtf the DHS was 'created' for, 'tards!...perhaps it should be re-named the DJS...."Department of Jewish Security"?!?)

    secondly: you can bet yr last razoo that "she never leaves home without one" (i.e: a roscoe or six with a CCP to boot!) and she's probably got a wardrobe-ful of rifles & shotties all "cocked & locked" & "ready to GO!"

    finally: being the hypocritical hebe' that she is, you can also bet yr last razoo, that, as soon as she sees a "mud", she scampers away as quickly as her size 5s will carry her....the muddier, the quicker the scamper!

    (she's on big, fat ADL & SPLC "retainers"...that's wtf she "publishes" the pathetic drivel on this 'blog....OTW: no-one "in their right mind" would invest more than five minutes' effort into this patently ludicrous if not absurd twaddle!)

  24. Mind control to enforce forced-association! It's capitalist brilliance and a communist dream come true! Stalin would have loved to use this in the Ukraine, then perhaps he and his jewish government would not have had to murder so many millions. Why not try the same thing to destroy more of nature's plan? Why not impose some similiar program on straight men and women to make them gay? We could have the ugly white race gone in no time!

    Back to the real world. Nikki, I was just reading about how it's economics, not race, which causes blacks to behave the way they do. I suppose we are to forget about the antics of so many black politicians, "civil rights" leaders, dictators, entertainers, ball players and so on? Money doesn't not change race.

    And what if it did? What if an ignorent person, once wealthy or at least well off, stopped being ignorent, stopped behaving in an anti-social way and started being a productive person? Would the ghetto, when filled with these people, become just like any white neighborhood? Yes?

    Then why is it, that in all the time that I've been reading your blog and articles, I've never heard you say that some racist white person behaved badly due to poverty or poor economic situations? Why is it that we've never heard you say that the criminal element in the pro-white movement would go away should economic situations improve? If lack of money causes the negro to be responsible for over 1/3 of the crime in the US, then is it unfair to say that the nearly untraceable number of crimes committed in the pro-white movement are for the same reason?

    I think it is just the opposite. I think it's a good economy that keeps people ignoring the race problems. This sort of thing certainly wouldn't fly in nations where hard work is still a requirement. Take Eastern Europe for instance. The governments there make token efforts to enact race laws to appease the west but they know if they are enforced, people would overthrow the state.

    Too much good times are bad and I'm glad to see them coming to an end. We spend millions upon millions trying to lose weight in this country...but people say things are bad? Not yet but they are getting there. The ghetto is growing, not shrinking like most bank accounts.

  25. You can't link racism to mental illness, Harry. However, you can link it solid to the pro-white movement. I hate to say that but it's our own fault. You have about 5 huge examples of mental illness parading around unchecked and barely opposed. The problem with the mentally ill, is that they think they're being crazy is some sort of secret (if they are aware themselves even).

    Most people who are interested in the movement are met at the door by some of the whackos. The diehards will put up with the crazy scemes, obsessions, odd behavior, general disfunction and bizzare ideas for a while. Even they have enough and swear the whole thing off.

    I could crew a destroyer with the ammount of people a select 6 or 7 people have ran off, never to be heard from again. Each one of them suffered from some obvious mental illness, personality disorder or mental imbalance. Most of their disorders were common knowledge too.

    So if you hate racism and the pro-white movement, don't knock true mental illness. It keeps out far many more people than any anti-racist group does.

  27. I completely agree with you. These crazies in the non-movement are the ones that are driving everyone off. I have been heavily attacked with death threats, etc from many within the movement.

    When confronted with logic I'm called every name you can think of including a Jew. I have found most of these people to be complete pussies though. I'm a big guy and would be willing to bet that I would put a serious beat down on most of who I have talked to, so I have on many occasions, countered their threats and developed plans to make a meeting possible.

    Unfortunately, each and every time the crazy has backed down once they realize that I am not the least bit afraid of them.

    These nut jobs are the ones that are driving people off. No intelligent person wants to associate themselves with these clowns who have more than a few screws loose.

    The only other thing that is driving people away by the masses is the whole Jew thing and all of the obsession with Hitler. The average Joe thinks of a Jew as another white person. The misconception here within the movement is it is a Jew problem. In reality it is a Democrat problem. 87% of them are Democrats. The ones who aren't are some pretty normal people. Michael Savage, Mark Levin, etc.

    And if Hitler had a brand, it would be a highly tarnished brand. In marketing, you don't go and tie yourself in with the worst brands you can find. You do and your message will be a failure.

    It's kind of like saying, I love Patio TV Dinners. (Dog food for people)

    One thing though, that many would agree with (other than these liberal extremists) is that reverse racism has gotten out of control. The white male is in reality the most discriminated against person in America, we are all sick of "diversity", we are sick of being told we owe anyone anything, we clearly see that there are severe cultural problems with blacks for the most part. etc.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Hooch - would you care to elaborate on exactly how white males are discriminated against? In what ways have you experienced what you call reverse discrimination?

    ReplyDelete
  29. Elaboration.

    Personal experience - One of my companies has lost hundreds of thousands of dollars in government contracts that have been given to minority owned businesses. I was specifically told that the reason is Virginia's Department of Minority Businesses (SWAM) is calling for at least 40% of all government contracts in Virginia to be given to minority owned businesses. Why? Blacks for example only represent 13% of the population. These are contracts we already had. The management at these government facilities fought for us to no avail.

    I also lost a Federal contract with the Navy to be given to a minority owned business.

    That is the worse of my personal experience related to reverse discrimination.

    Reverse racism includes:
    Being called on multiple occasions "white boy" or "cracker mutherfucker" How about me saying "black boy" is that racism?

    The channel BET, Would White Entertainment Channel be racist?

    How about the United Negro College Fund. Would a United White College Fund be racist?

    How about Miss Black America.

    The angry white male is sick of this crap. We put up with a lot but there is a breaking point and they don't want to see that happen.

    The politically correct bullshit has gone to an extreme that is sickening. It is thought of as a positive thing by the liberal extremists when a black person is proud of their race but when a white person is proud of their race, they are a racist.

    How about this, is this discrimination against the white male?
    http://hotair.com/archives/2009/01/22/video-no-stimulus-money-for-white-males/

    I would like an answer to this question from you Nikki. Whether agree in this discrimination against white males or not. I am wondering if you are so closed minded about this subject that you are completely incapable of seeing discrimination when the tables are turned.

    I would also like to watch the video again and where ever the word "White" comes up, mentally switch it to "Black". Now what do you think?

    Such a common thought by the Democrats. Give it to the minorities, screw the poor white people. I've got news for the libs reading this. There are significantly more poor white people in America than poor blacks. Therefore, significantly more poor white people should get these government forced taxpayer handouts than poor blacks.

    You want to be fair, Blacks get no more than 13 percent of the handouts as they represent no more than 13 percent of the population.

    BTW, You may ask why I say white "male". That is because the government allows white females to classify themselves as a minority owned business, therefore they also have an edge on the white male. If you are a black male you have government points over a white female and if you are a black female you win bids over a black male.
