Hey folks,
On a recent exam, the students were asked to discuss how much
homogamy ("sameness") they see in their romantic relationships, and list
the one homogamy factor that was most important in whom they date.
One student wrote "race," saying that while she wasn't a racist, she simply
did not like black people.
Can a student -- or any individual for that matter -- argue being a non-racist
while simultaneously offering an apparent disdain for another race of people
(obviously knowing WHY she doesn't like them would be helpful here).
I know racism isn't the same thing as being prejudiced, but can someone
really be prejudiced and NOT be racist? In what way?
Thanks very much,
