Deletion

Oof! Glad this wasn't deleted. It's referred to in my sociology class, and this has proven quite helpful. And, in fact, notable. This theory is cited in my textbook and is going to be on my midterm!

While the existence of Aversive Racism has yet to be proven, if you don't believe in it, you're racist. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.170.6.10 (talk • contribs)

Aversive Racism works both ways

I edited aversive racism adding a line informed by my being a mixed race Republican who met and discussed politics with Obama while he was studying law at Harvard. I have also been to a John Dovidio lecture and asked him questions afterwards.RichardBond (talk) 10:33, 16 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

color blind?

Latest comment: 11 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

In the section on combating aversive racism, it speaks out against the "color blind" approach, but then goes on to cite studies on how effective the plan is of consciously forcing oneself to not treat different races differently. It speaks as though these are completely separate ideas, but to me it sounds as if this is actually a way for someone who overtly holds color-blind views to overcome any non-conscious racism they might have and actually behave in a color-blind way, by forcing themselves to conform to their own belief that race should be ignored. Because despite what some people dismissive of the idea might have you believe, the color-blind ideology does not expect people to truly not notice race, but instead simply insists that they ignore it. What of this? 64.24.209.204 (talk) 02:08, 13 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
