      OK, we agree on that.

      To what extent do you think that implicit or unconscious bias cause visible minority groups to need to have to work harder and be more exceptional to get a position, role, or responsiblity, or a n on-category specified grant, assistance, or similar?

        I think it would considerably vary from place to place, even workplace to workplace. In some (rare) places not at all, in some places considerably. I would be entirely guessing if I was to say what the average was.

          Replying to this one because newer. Have read and taken the other reply of yours into account too.

          I agree that we’re off on a vibes and feels thing here because we don’t have the data, and obviously it will vary between workplaces and individuals (even if to put systemic issues as individual choice/responsibility just covers for those systemic issues).

          We do have data from France showing that their entirely colourblind governance has not helped, despite targeting on socio economic or geographic bounds.

          When surely, if colourblind policies would do better at undoing systemic racism, wouldn’t France have had better outcomes from them?
