Following two days of discussing race relations in the wake of a series of
highly publicized police shootings with my Fordham (Bronx) students... one
of my students referred me to a pretty nifty device/"test" for identifying
how internalized our attitudes of white/good black/bad are. Regardless of
how valid you find the test, it takes only a few minutes and should promote
interesting class discussion.

Note: The first page of the web site is just background info, the test
begins after you click "Proceed."
