1Diversity.org Antiracism Program: Educational Resources
At 1Diversity.org, we are committed to providing participants with comprehensive tools and resources that promote antiracist learning, reflection, and action. The following resources have been designed to support your journey towards becoming an advocate for racial equity and justice.
Racism Assessment Test
In the book Blindspot, the authors reveal hidden biases based on their experience with the Implicit Association Test. Project Implicit is graciously hosting electronic versions of Blindspot’s IATs. These should work properly on any desktop computer and on several touch-screen devices including iPads, Android tablets, Nook tablets, and the Kindle Fire.
These tests are not currently supported on Regular Kindle, Kindle Paperwhite, standard Nooks, and smartphones. Please use a computer or one of the supported tablets.
For best results with keyboards: Use left hand for “e” key and right hand for “i” key. For touch-screens: Lay the device on a flat surface, use landscape orientation, using left hand for the left tap area and right hand for the right tap area.
If you encounter technical difficulties, please send a brief description to [email protected] and we will do our best to respond.
