Are You a Racist or a Perceptionist?
Jamie Foxx explains the difference between a racist and a "perceptionist" on the Joe Rogan Podcast. Most importantly he makes the distinction between the idea that many liberals believe that all people who voted for Trump are racists when the reality is that many are just "perceptionists."
A perceptionist is someone who has deeply ingrained beliefs about the way certain people are. We are all victims of perception. And i believe that one of life's tasks is to become aware of this bias that blinds all of us into thinking things are the way we think they are because of our deep and often unconscious beliefs. Somewhere in our individual histories we "learn" stuff that the world "teaches" us. A lot of this stuff is wrong and we end up being ignorant our whole lives. In this way it's up to us to unlearn what we've "learned."
In this case Jamie shows us that even though we know that there are good black pilots out there, we still hold the perception that a silver foxed white man is more trustworthy as a good pilot than a black man. Obviously the truth can only be known if we look at each pilot's experience and flight history. But this is almost always overlooked. And I'm sure there will be plenty of examples of this in the comment section below :).
