So, if you look at data from The Harvard Implicit Association Test, the way people view LGBTQ+ persons has become much more positive. A drop in bias between 33-49% in a relatively short amount of time, if you know anything about statistics, this is huge. Even among racial bias there's been a pretty significant drop.
Unfortunately, bias against persons who are perceived as overweight or disabled have gone up. Why do you think this is? What actions can we take to make this better? What do you think made the difference in the perception of LGBTQ+ and Racial Minorities?
