“…These are not so different from the claims of White supremacist and hate groups today. White Nationalist leader David Duke, a former Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard, asserts that he does not hate Black people; rather he represents “the very opposite of racism,” and wants only to defend his White heritage (Duke, 2011; “Rights for white people,” 2017). Many people of color report that they endure racial slurs from White friends or colleagues who believe they are using these terms affectionately (e.g., Harwood, Huntt, Mendenhall, & Lewis, 2012).…”

In a 2017 article in Perspectives on Psychological Science, Scott Lilienfeld critiqued the conceptual basis for microaggressions as well as the scientific rigor of scholarship on the topic. The current article provides a response that systematically analyzes the arguments and representations made in Lilienfeld’s critique with regard to the concept of microaggressions and the state of the related research. I show that, in contrast to the claim that the concept of microaggressions is vague and inconsistent, the term is well defined and can be decisively linked to individual prejudice in offenders and mental-health outcomes in targets. I explain how the concept of microaggressions is connected to pathological stereotypes, power structures, structural racism, and multiple forms of racial prejudice. Also described are recent research advances that address some of Lilienfeld’s original critiques. Further, this article highlights potentially problematic attitudes, assumptions, and approaches embedded in Lilienfeld’s analysis that are common to the field of psychology as a whole. It is important for all academics to acknowledge and question their own biases and perspectives when conducting scientific research.

“…Even White nationalists, such as mass-murderer Anders Breivik, often do not admit to being racist, but instead claim that they are trying to protect their culture and way of life (Kendi, 2021). In another example, David Duke, a former Ku Klux Klan member and neo-Nazi who has repeatedly displayed racist behavior, says he is not a racist, asserting that he does not hate Black people, rather he represents “the very opposite of racism” and only wants to defend his White heritage (Duke, 2016; Newsweek, 2017). Those who do admit to being racist are largely the more antiracist people who have realized that they have been badly programmed by society and are trying to work it out of their consciousness.…”

Evidence-based jury selection is a critical need because of historical and ongoing racial biases that impede a just process and outcome. As norms about bias, how to measure it, and mitigating its effects have progressed over time, new tools to help carry out this work have become available. This article synergizes the latest relevant psychological literature with the combined wisdom and experience of an interdisciplinary group of experts in racism, law, psychology, mental health, and biomedical science to provide a framework to advance the jury selection process. We describe and provide examples of how jurors should be asked direct questions about their behaviors rather than simply their attitudes. Further, we suggest that racial justice allies should be identified as potential jurors because such individuals will be best able to approach their jury duty in an impartial, antiracist manner.
