But there are a couple of things make implicit bias especially fascinating and potentially insidious: First, since our thoughts often determine our actions, implicit bias can lead to discriminatory behaviors (more on those below). Second, it is impossible to detect without taking a test.

Implicit bias lives deep in your subconscious, and it is largely separate from the biases you know you have.
