Biased
Uncovering the Hidden Prejudice That Shapes What We See, Think, and Do
Jennifer L. Eberhardt
Learn about the subtle and dramatic effects of implicit racial bias in Biased, a personal examination of one of the most powerful cultural issues of our time. Through both scientific research and personal experience, one of the leading experts on unconscious racial bias explores how ingrained stereotypes can infect our visual perception, attention, memory, and behavior, leading to disparities in housing, education, employment, and the criminal justice system. With practical suggestions for reform and interviews with law enforcement professionals, Biased offers an insightful look into the pervasive nature of racial bias in modern society, and how we can all play a role in solving this human problem.

Today’s recommendation is a staggering book that examines the science of “us and them” — particularly when it comes to race.
Implicit bias is pernicious, but it’s not inevitable.
Eberhardt shows what everyone can do to reduce bias, to widen the circle of who constitutes “us.” – fuente2019-04-17T17:28:41.000Z
