Black American relative to White American.
I was peeking at a couple reviews for the last book I finished, Blink by Malcolm Gladwell.
Regardless of your opinion of the book, or the folks reviewing it, I did stumble upon one of the implicit association tests mentioned in the book.
The tests look for biases or preferences that exist beyond conscious thinking. The rationale is that you can consciously hide something from yourself. These tests work via secondary association and claim to uncover these preferences be they conscious or unconscious.

Just something to have some fun with and do some thinking. Anything you care to share or ponder is welcome.
