I found this article and thought it was really interesting. Basically, research has been found that people tend to feel less empathy for people that are of a different race than them. It also says that people who feel the most empathy for their own group feel the least empathy for people of a different group. This relates to the ingroup bias that we talked about during the stereotype lecture!
