Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 26 page paper discussing a qualitative study investigating unintentional racism. It is clear that racism continues to thrive in America. Fringe groups nurture hatred of difference and seek to recruit others to their way of thinking (or rather not thinking), but far more individuals find themselves experiencing unintended and unwanted racism within themselves.

Discussion extends findings to Hispanics and other groups within America. Bibliography lists 13 sources.
