So if a minority takes the Implicitly Association Test and finds out their biased against the dominant “race” in their area, are they a Racist1, or not?
I would also really question the validity of the Implicit Association Test. It says “Your data suggest a slight implicit preference for White People compared to Black People.”, which given that blacks have been severely under-represented my social sub-culture for the last 27 years(Punk/Goth), the school I graduated from (Art School), and my professional environments (IT) for the last 20 years is probably not inaccurate.
However, it also says “Your data suggest a slight implicit preference for Herman Cain compared to Barack Obama.” Which is nonsense. I have a STRONG preference for Herman Cain over Barack Obama.

Looks like we need more “racism”s :D A common definition of racism that reflects the intuitions you bring up is “racism is prejudice plus power,” (e.g., here) which isn’t very useful from a decision-making point of view but which is very useful when looking at this racism as a functional thing experienced by the some group.
