Dateline might not be the most intellectual or sophisticated of shows,
but every once in a while they highlight something interesting.

Below is a synopsis of the show they did:

Do you have a hidden racial bias?

Most of us would like to think that we are not racist. But could we
harbor prejudices that we may not even be aware of? NBC's Sara James
shows us a surprising scientific test that can reveal hidden racial
bias.

Great post Scott! I scored neutral, no preference for AA or European
Americans, non-biased.

Scott you MAY be pleased to hear that Oprah used your test on her
show, and man was she excited to get folks to check out the site. I
bet they had more hits that day than all other days combined.

It was a great show and I was glad to see her pushing that self-
assessing our "race" awareness is the first step to be being
actualized as the healthy multiracial family that God intends for us
to be in glory some day Rev. 7:9-10.
