“Most of us recognize and stand solidly against overt expressions of racism such as racial slurs, violence, cross-burnings by the Ku Klux Klan, and practices of blatant racial segregation and discrimination. But overt racism is only the tip of the iceberg. More often, racial discrimination is disguised and shows up in subtle ways (covert racism) such as implicit biases, microaggressions, and racially coded language. Often, people who say and do these things are unaware of the racism that informs them.”

Implicit Bias:

https://www.r2hub.org/library/what-is-implicit-bias

“Implicit Bias is the unconscious thinking that evaluates one group and its members to another group even when that thinking does not align with our stated beliefs, values, or commitments. The automatic and unintentional bias that we have affects our judgements, decisions, and behaviors toward the group and its members. The impact of any bias is felt by the group or its members regardless of if it was unintentional or not.”

Cultural Bias:
