I believe the answer is: racial common sense

racial common sense refers to the process of categorizing an individual toward a certainn racial group based on the characteristic that predominantly held by members of the racial group.

Other example would be when we're categorizing someone as asian because that person have yellowish skin and narrow eyes.
