Please carefully read these three articles.
The first is primary research in how bias creeps in:

The second is an analysis of the research and looks at implications for police work:

The third looks at how black girls are perceived to be older than they are:

I chose to use the private journal venue for your analysis of your own biases in this very sensitive topic of racial bias.

Using 250-300 words, answer these questions:

1. What was of particular interest to you in the readings?
2. How does the analysis of the articles deepen your understanding of the issues?
3. What are some concrete ways you can watch for bias in your work/planned career? With your colleagues? What guidelines from our text might help?
