E...I...E...I...X?
Upon completion of the Harvard Implicit Assocation Test I felt the results were not credible. I feel that the predetermined responses were far to vague and did not accurately describe any feelings that I had toward either whites or blacks. I cannot catorgorize anyone as simply good or bad, black or white. I can't understand how these questions derive any scientific result. I can say that I agree that I do have a greater familiarity with European ancestry than African ancestry simply because I grew up in a 98 percent majority. However, I do not believe that one race is inherently better than another because I do no believe any person is inherently better than another. I wish I could continue my thoughts, but I really don't have much more to say about this test. To me, it simply is unscientific and the results don't seem to based on anything more than reflexes.
