Abstract

The purpose of this pilot study discussed in this article is to determine whether racist behaviors exist on a continuum, in other words highlighting the degrees of racist behaviors. It appears that racist behaviors range from indirect to direct acts. White people often state that they are not a racist as evident by never using the “N” word. But this theory suggest that racist behaviors is not always associated with direct behaviors such as using the “N” word but can be evident by indirect behaviors. To support this theory Black males and females were interviewed to ask they experiences interactions and encounters with White individuals or groups. In addition, the responses from the interviewees confirmed that races-based encounters did highlight those racist behaviors exist on a continuum that ranges from indirect to direct behaviors that have been labeled as degrees of racism.
