There is something called the blue eyes brown eyes exercise, and it's hosted by a woman named Jane Elliot. Long story short; it's an experiment that uses eye colour to discriminate against others to show what actual racism feels like. The link that I put above is the result of this exercise.

I personally agree with the woman carrying out the test, what do you guys think?

I am going to move this over here, because this has more than a good chance of turning into a debate.

I think that was fucking stupid, she is able to make a point, without shouting at a pupil needlessly

lmao comparing race to eye color...now there's a pointless apples-to-oranges stunt if I ever saw one

wow to be honest this woman was kind of annoying right from the start but ok.
"No you can't raise your hand because that means you think it's important what you are going to say, instead of me"
What? Really what? What's wrong with a question? Isn't a question important?

How is it a lesson, if you're just expecting to give a monologue without people wanting to discuss it?
Seeeeeems a litttttle bit pointless to me.

To be honest I'd cry too if I were that girl.
"You can't walk out of this classroom untill you apologize to every person of colour because it's physicaly impossible for them to walk away"
