I do not like when we assign race as a factor and then look to biological explanations of a social construct that is a tool of power.

Why not just members? Reading studies like these make me feel icky. Like we try to justify race and racism from an evolutionary stand point. Members of groups respond better to members. This may be a social construct or a biological group of animals.

 

This study is cited a lot in my fast read of online learning and race.
