SUMMARY:Implicit biases: a challenge for accessibilism?
DESCRIPTION:It has recently been argued that beliefs formed on the basis of
  implicit biases pose a problem for accessibilism\, since implicit biases 
 are consciously inaccessible\, yet they are relevant to epistemic justific
 ation. In this talk\, I discuss the notion of accessibility required for t
 his argument to work vis-&agrave\;-vis recent empirical results suggesting
  that\, while we may typically lack conscious access to the source of impl
 icit attitudes and their impact on our beliefs and behaviour\, we do have 
 access to their content. Accessibilism\, I argue\, can meet the challenge 
 posed by implicit biases in two different ways. The accessibilist can enri
 ch the supervenience base for justification by including in such base fact
 s that the subject is in a position to know. Alternatively\, the accessibi
 list can appeal to a distinction between justificatorily relevant first- a
 nd second-order facts\, and argue that while the former may be inaccessibl
 e\, the latter need not.
