"How do we combat racism in a world determined to tell us it doesn’t exist? To hold the line against racism, we need to know it when we see it. And as the dominant racial group in our society, White people must take up the charge. The problem is that White people haven’t been socialized to detect racial bias in the way people of color do. Racism is more than using racial slurs or overt, hateful speech, and it’s more than unintentional slights; it’s about an entire system that upholds Whiteness as the preferred standard. Fortunately, detecting it is a skill that can be learned."

Evelyn Carter is a social psychologist who studies how we detect and discuss racial bias, and how we can do both more effectively.
