also re: the cues thing, it reminds me about this study cordelia fine talks about where children watched video tapes of a white french guy talking about multiculturalism and specifically black immigrants, where he was either saying gr8 stuff or just kind of me AND he was either sitting close to his friendly black immigrant pal and looking comfy with him or avoiding touching him and stuff
and then they evaluated the kids' endorsements of racist views, and it turned out the actual script didn't matter. it was all in the body language
