Dr Lassana Harris: Race and the Brain (EISPS Global Politics Remix 2021: Decolonial, Black and Queer Perspectives)
Dr Harris presented psychological and neuroscience evidence for dehumanized perception—a failure to consider another person’s mind, and for racism—displaying a social bias based on perceived racial/ethnic groups. He explored how these phenomena impact legal decision-making, and their role in human rights abuses. Finally, he discussed strategies for leveraging dehumanized perception in legal proceedings to benefit the defense, and ways of mitigating the impact of racial bias in legal and policy decisions.
