1. I think that that the author thought that the University of Chicago test revealed him as racist because he shot the "black" people more then the "white" people. Personally I don't think that this test means anything because its not the test to decided wether your racist or not.
2. No because the test surprised people on the score that they got. I think this because I was also surprised with my score and how I did. So others will probably be more surprised also.
3. The author probably thinks that sexism is harder to fight than racism because he thinks that women are just not strong enough as men. The research that suggest this is that "subjects who were asked to think of a strong woman then showed less implicit bias about men and women."
4. Basically the quote is saying that women are just mean, evil, and tough but people are think that women are soft, warm, and cuddly.
5. The real problem women face according to the author is "that women have trouble being perceived as both nice and competent." Well I think that it all depends on who that women is because it depends on the person.
6. This problem can be confronted according to the author by "the impact of this presidential contest won’t be measured just in national policies, but also in progress in the deepest recesses of our own minds." I think that this would be different and I just think that people are equal and just need to be far and just stop the racism.
