    "title": "Explaining Injustice in Speech: Individualistic vs. Structural Explanation",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Implicit bias has recently gained much attention in\nscholarly attempts to understand and explain different\nforms of social injustice by identifying causally\nrelevant mental states in individual’ minds. Here we\nquestion the explanatory power of implicit bias in a\nparticular type of injustice, testimonial injustice, and\nmore generally in what we call speech injustice.\nTestimonial injustice occurs when the audience deflates\na speaker’s credibility due to the speaker’s perceived\nsocial identity (Fricker, 2007). We identify two\ndrawbacks of a widely accepted explanation attributing\ntestimonial injustice to prejudices (e.g. implicit bias) in\nthe mind of the hearer, and argue that further\nunderstanding of this phenomenon can be gained from a\nstructural explanation that appeals to discursive\nconventions and interlocutors’ positions in the\ncommunicative exchange.",
