Brown eyes and blue


Brown eyes and blue eyes (Jane Elliot)
Discrimination
 
One class Mr.Hedley told us to write our thoughts and how we felt about the brown and blue eyes for Jane Elliot. Here is the video we must write about :.
This video took place in Ohio, in 1984. It's about a class divided in two parts , some of them own brown eyes and the others have blue eyes. Ms.Elliot divided this class to touch her students feelings so she can change it to something better.
On the first day Ms.Elliot preferred the students who own brown eyes, they can play with each other and do everything they want to. Mr.Elliot let the blue eyes feel that they are pariahs.
On the next day she turned it upside down, brown eyes this time felt that they are pariahs. After that Mr.Elliot re-united them then she says that feeling you felt is the same feeling the black guys feel so they decided to be one hand and not discriminate ever.
 
I see that Ms.Elliot is very smart in this point because she made me change my mind and be compassionate to the other guys that are different from me.
This class restored union as a positive step from Mr.Elliot , to find out the positive and negative aspects to this distinction .
