"Are you racially biased? Harvard University has been trying to find out with its racism test, Project Implicit®. The less than 10-minute test throws different races at you and has you identify the images as 'bad' or 'good' as quickly as you can. The idea is that your first reaction is usually the most honest. Started 11 years ago by Harvard, the University of Washington and the University of Virginia, Project Implicit® is a joint investigation into our subconscious biases. Most people would say that they are not biased against those with darker skin, obese people or women, but researchers say that we often harbor biases that we are unaware of."
