SKIN COLOR BIAS
On the receiving end, Sherletta McCaskill, who’s black, detailed her time working at an organization that serves homeless youth:
"I was promoted to a new position but paid less than my male white co-worker, though I had more experience. This same co-worker revealed to me that management said I needed to “prove myself” first. To the organization’s credit, this division of the company did invest in diversity and anti-racism training. However, the results were very shallow. Workers of color who spoke up were seen as divisive, while workers who “stayed in their place” were rewarded. We could speak about issues of race as long as we didn't make white people feel uncomfortable".
BIAS MADE BY THE AUTHOR

To be truly biased means to lack a neutral viewpoint on a particular topic. Somewhere along the line, bias took on a negative connotation. We tend to think it's a bad thing but that's not always true.
