ok im dong a project 4 my social sciences class, and this is kinda a pre-experiment so i know what to expect:

im going to describe 4 people to you. they are all 25 year old males. they are either white or black. based on the descriptions, i want you to tell me which ones you think are white, and which ones you think are black.

please dont say it impossible to tell, i understand that in reality, it is, but the point of this is that you guess the race of these people.

person 1) is a regular drinker. has gotten tickets for drunk driving, has had a few girlfriends in the last 6 months, none of which lasted more then 3 weeks. has gotten in trouble with the law for hitting girlfriends

2)deals with drugs, achohal, guns and violence. is a member of a gang, has commited murder. is known for extremely rash and violent descions

3)married family-man, lower middle class, 1 small kid, hard worker

4)"rich guy" arrogent and uncaring to poor people, single, gambler, born into richnes

Probably white or Hispanic, female, adolescent, and middle-class. And American.
