The Brown Eye/Blue Eye Experiment



A few weeks ago, I learned about the Brown Eye/Blue Eye Experiment and Jane Elliott on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

Ms. Elliott has been using this experiment to help people learn about their attitudes concerning race for more than 50 years.  I was able to find the above video on You Tube.

Watching the video was not a comfortable experience. However, it gives a little bit of insight into what it is like to be treated differently because of a personal characteristic over which you have no control.

If you are able, I encourage you to watch this video and/or learn more about Ms. Elliott and her work.
