Well the children seemed VERY young, like an age where the are easily impressionable and dont question a lot. If she was doing this to middle schoolers or high schoolers I would less upset about her methods as they would be smart to not do it. Young children dont know what theyre doing, they are just doing what they are told. I doubt after her experiment was over she told them what they did was wrong or if she did she did it in a way to make them feel insignificant.

well when i was 8 i saw the boondocks for the first time.
i saw it and it just opened my eyes so much and that's when i started being really proud to be black. i mean there never was a time when i wasn't but when i saw the boondocks it made me really appreciate it. I saw huey and all the things he would say and do. i wanted to be him. i started growing an afro(didn't really work that well) and wearing hoodies just like him. he talked about the black panthers sometimes and that's what i wanted to be. I wanted to be black panther i think i even told my parents.
so yeah race was brought to my attention by a t.v. show.

quick plot:
Based on the original comic strip Boondocks, Two young brothers (Huey and Riley) move away from their birth city to live with their irascible grandfather out in the suburbs. With one brother being socially and politically motivated and the younger brother a stereotypical black youth who likes rap music and culture etc Biting socio-political commentary ensues when they meet a whole cast of crazy exaggerated characters set in a mainly white middle upper class neighbourhood.
you've never seen the boondocks!?!?

that's the god damn point and it's a metaphor like this guy says. Either you're really, really slow or just trolling.
The eye thing is representing how it was like back then and now, secretly. She abandons that eye scenario and sticks straight to the point if that's what you mean.
Just stop, read the replies and try to think differently. Not trying to sound rude, but direct.

I am niether slow nor trolling, I am just seeing it differently than you.
It WAS a metaphor then it she went direct, she did that in the first ten minutes. It went from ill separate these two groups to lets yell at white people for being racist and lets kick out people with different opinions than me then call them racist.
I dont need to conform to your opinion just because youre yelling at me that im wrong. You are using her way of teaching, that became shockingly clear when you asked if I was slow for disagreeing with you.

I have a different opinion, how does that mean im slow?
Ive read all the replies and I DO NOT think I need to change my opinion! You need to become more acceping of others, do NOT say I have a disability because I have a different opinion.
I CAN NOT believe some peoples attitude towards differing opinions on these forums!
It's not your opinion, it's the way you think. I state why she does the thing you stated and explained it a little yet you continue on recycling your replies saying she's wrong. She's right, regardless of what you say and think. Nobody disagrees with her just light hearted people who get offended over everything.
If you're literally the only one who sees a problem with these, you should start to realize that the way you're thinking is in the wrong.

My opinion is my way of thinking. She IS wrong in the way she tackles the issue. If she had actually did the original scenario and showed racism through that I wouldnt complain or when tackled race directly, DIDNT call every white person a racist or anyone who didnt completely agree with her opinion a racist, I would be fine. However she did, you also cant say no one disagreed because in the video it states MANY people had problems with her way of thinking.
A LOT of people see a problem with this, however since only you, me, and Duck are arguing about this it seems like im the minority. I do not need to change my opinion on this woman's practices to comform to YOUR way of thinking.

aw man i thought everyone would.

I doubt after her experiment was over she told them what they did was wrong or if she did she did it in a way to make them feel insignificant.
yeah it probably did effect them in someway but i started getting into race or rather being aware of it when i was about 8.
How did you get into it?
well when i was 8 i saw the boondocks for the first time.
i saw it and it just opened my eyes so much and that's when i started being really proud to be black. i mean there never was a time when i wasn't but when i saw the boondocks it made me really appreciate it.

I wanted to be black panther i think i even told my parents.
so yeah race was brought to my attention by a t.v. show.
I honestly have never seen that show. What is it about?

It definitely seemed interesting...And I never watched adult swim much.
oh man its awesome. its one of my favorite shows. and adult swim is amazing as well. anyway, that's pretty much what go me into race.
I dont know if that should be classified as a subtle introduction or strong outright introduction.
there's nothing subtle about that show.
True enough
its an amazing show. did you find anything funny?
Yeah a couple of things but I found the over use of the n word annoying.
well they say nigga a lot because some people use it that much and because adult swim let's them say it and they don't bleep it out.
Oh I KNOW people who uses it that much and its still annoying.
yeah sometimes but you should really watch the show.
It doesnt seem like my type of thing.
aw man really why not?

Dont know, it seems like ill laugh sometimes but still not like it.
damn dude you're missing out big time
People say that to me a lot, its just not my type of show, glad you enjoy it though.
hey to each his own i guess.
LOL I cannot believe some forum members. you say you're not slow yet you totally disregard my point then say you're "thinking differently"
hey man this forum is crazy i've learned that.
I have a different opinion, how does that mean im slow?
Ive read all the replies and I DO NOT think I need to change my opinion! You need to become more acceping of others, do NOT say I have a disability because I have a different opinion.
I CAN NOT believe some peoples attitude towards differing opinions on these forums!
So am I crazy for having a different opinion?
