Your Brain Is Racist! [THOUGHT]


Well not quite, but our brains make us empathise with people of the same race. At least according to a report published in Journal Experimental Social Psychology. The study which was performed with a group of white men by asking them watch videos of Asian, black, and white men drinking a glass of water. As they watched the film clips the scientists monitored brain activity to see whether their brains mimicked the action. The result? The men's brains lit up most when watching someone of their own race. Not imperical data, but this much I'm convinced by, people are born with a tendency to group others on how like themselves they are ...that being said, "racism still alive, they just be concealing it!"
