That's interesting. What's that from? I feel like I'd heard that it didn't take much to develop empathy and overcome racist attitudes just by basically exposing people to the groups they fear more often in everyday life l, though I have no source on that. I wonder if physiological responses like those can be changed in the right conditions or if it'll always be that way.
Some people I know have by now spent about 30 years living in the same neighbourhoods as Muslim, African etc immigrants, they see them everywhere all the time and they're certainly not getting any less racist
Maybe it makes sense in America where a lot of white people live on like a corn field in the middle of nowhere or something, but Europeans are massively racist and keep voting for more and more fascist politicians and they live side by side with immigrants in major cities
