Discrimination

by Dr Davis on May 5, 2010

student_raising-hand-computerI know there is discrimination today. I also know there is less than there was even when I was a little girl. But any is still bad. So this article, Black Students Experience More Online Bias Than Do Whites caught my attention.

A new study has found that black students experience more online racial discrimination and generally have a more negative view of campus racial diversity than their white counterparts.

My first thought was: How do you experience racial discrimination online?
My second thought was: Of course they have a more negative view.

It’s worth reading and thinking about.
