I have read this article many times, and even used in some Professional Development that I present. When I use it to instruct I use a strategy called Text Graffiti. I pull specific quotes out of the text and have people state what they think the meaning behind the quote is prior to reading the article. I then have them reflect back on their initial thoughts after reading the article. For me, the section that stands out most in the article is: " While the brain isn't wired to be racist, it uses biases as unconscious defense shortcuts". I find this section to be so important because people can be afraid of admiting to biases, however ones they realize that we all have them and that it doesn't make you a bad person, we can bring them into consciousness in order to combat the affects.
