    How racist are you ? For the last few years I've been of the opinion that everybody is the world is racist- but it is a matter of degree of how much- some more than others obviously. Of course the PC world we live in dictates that we cannot express our feelings in public but there are underlying truths to everything.

    Anyway have a go at the Harvard Race Test to find out how racist you are. Click here and then scroll down to 'Race IAT'.

    Yup we all have some degree of racism in us, from mild to moderate to extreme, most would never admit it though, not even to themselves.

    Thanks for the link.
    I'll stick with using my own mind to navigate my potential prejudices, though.
    If you're happy with indulging your innate bigotry then at least have the courage of your convictions; no need to for convoluted explanations or excuses.
    Congratulations on your result, by the way.

    How the hell is African-american the other side of the coin?
    It's the exact same thing; a label by which a group of people choose to define themselves.

    Been a long time since Mr Sexton and his Geography class, but i seem to recall Africa NOT being a part of europe............now maybe i am wrong but would that not be the other side of the coin when one side is EUROPEAN AMERICAN no??
