What I'd say is that I kinda got used to the first (White and Good) way then got confused the second (Black and Good) way. As in the keys and stuff.

Do the test btw and you'll see what I mean.

Did this a few days ago and not at all racist! Hurrah! I think I got one question wrong (but I think I said a white person was 'bad' so I'm better than not racist!)

I dont need harvard to tell me I have an automatic preference for european americans. It would have been very strange if I didn't.

Why would you think that being negatively predisposed to white guys make you less of a racist than if it were black guys? Makes no sense to me.

LOL!

I got a slight preference to white Americans than black Americans. Of course I've been drinking as well ...

I'm not black or white. And I barely know any black people.

Oh well..I wonder if it would be different if the test went on vice-versa, first black and good and then white and bad...

Yea I thought that, in fact, I'm not sure at all about the 'scientific' merits of this at all cos all...

I took it again and got the exact same answer. Maybe I do have a slight black preference over white. Weird. I've only known a hand full of black people in my life and have mostly lived in white/asian dominated areas.

Its random. Read the methodology. For instance for me, I had to associates first black and good then white and bad. Then black and bad, and white and good. Much trickier.

They judge if you are a racist by the difficulty you have in answering the quesiton. They meassure this by the time delay it takes you to answer the question. If you have more difficulty in associating white with good you are anti-white. If you have more difficulty in associating black with good, you are anti-black.

You are just upset because you are modestly racist
