BIASED
The New Science of Race and Inquality
Stanford social psychologist and MacArthur genius Jennifer Eberhardt reveals that we do not have to be racist to have implicit racial bias and offers powerful studies, moving stories, and important solutions that have global implications.
BIASED has a global appeal because it illuminates the powerful and universal ways our unconscious mind shapes our thinking and behavior when it comes to race, stereotyping, inequality, and how we view others.
While the content of a stereotype might change, the process remains the same, and it is a universal problem for humans all over the globe.
While many of her stories come from her work in America, she will also be offering examples from soccer fans in France, prisons in Germany, police in Britain, as well as other countries.
Dr. Eberhardt’s research shows the potent effects of certain lingering biases worldwide. She has found evidence of the insidious association between blacks and apes, for example, in Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Costa Rica, England, India, Italy, Poland, Portugal, and Spain. Biased traces the persistent way dehumanizing racial stereotypes can inform cultural conversations all over the globe.
In a global society of increased migration and social movement, Biased highlights the social problems that arise when different races meet. Biased shows the stubbornly persistent role of racial bias in a world where economic and geographic realities are rapidly changing, and offers much needed solutions. This book is a conversation-starter for the world.
