Of the many obstacles to racial justice in America none has received more recent attention than the one that lurks in our subconscious As social movements and policing scandals have shown how far from being postracial we are the concept of implicit bias has taken center stage in the national conversation about race Millions of Americans have taken online tests purporting to show the deep invisible roots of their own prejudice A recent Oxford study that claims to have found a drug that reduces implicit bias is only the starkest example of a pervasive trend But what do we risk when we seek the simplicity of a technological diagnosisand solutionfor racism What do we miss when we locate racism in our biology and our brains rather than in our history and our social practicesIn Race on the Brain Jonathan Kahn argues that implicit bias has grown into a master narrative of race relationsone with profound if unintended negative consequences for law science and society He emphasizes its limitations arguing that while useful as a tool to understand particular types of behavior it is only one among several tools available to policy makers An uncritical embrace of implicit bias to the exclusion of power relations and structural racism undermines wider civic responsibility for addressing the problem by turning it over to experts Technological interventions including many tests for implicit bias are premised on a colorblind ideal and run the risk of erasing history denying present reality and obscuring accountability Kahn recognizes the significance of implicit social cognition but cautions against seeing it as a panacea for addressing Americas longstanding racial problems A bracing corrective to what has become a commonsense understanding of the power of prejudice Race on the Brain challenges us all to engage more thoughtfully and more democratically in the difficult task of promoting racial justice

It is plausible that evolution could have created the human skeleton but it is hard to believe that it created the human mind Yet in six or seven million years evolution came up with Homo sapiens a creature unlike anything the world had ever known The mental gap between man and ape is immense and yet evolution bridged that gap in so short a space of time Since the brain is the organ of the mind it is natural to assume that during the evolution of our hominid ancestors there were changes in the brain that can account for this gap This book is a search for those changes It is not enough to understand the universe the world or the animal kingdom we need to understand ourselves Humans are unlike any other animal in dominating the earth and adapting to any environment This book searches for specializations in the human brain that make this possible As well as considering the anatomical differences it examines the contribution of different areas of the brain reviewing studies in which functional brain imaging has been used to study the brain mechanisms that are involved in perception manual skill language planning reasoning and social cognition It considers a range of skills unique to us for example our ability to learn a language and pass on cultural traditions in this way and become aware of our own throughts through inner speechWritten in a lively style by a distinguished scientist who has made his own major contribution to our understanding of the mind the book is a farreaching and exciting quest to understand those things that make humans unique
