Kids are asked, "why do you want that skin color?" Renowned child psychologist and University of Chicago professor Margaret Beale Spencer, a leading researcher in the field of child development, led the study. She designed the pilot study and led a team of three psychologists: two testers to execute the study and a statistician to help analyze the results.

Her team tested 133 children from schools that met very specific economic and demographic requirements. In total, eight schools participated: four in the greater New York City area and four in Georgia.

  • Mainstream media mind-control has worked well on these kids. If the children had said the opposite, would the documentary ever be televised? Of course not. This is why these experiments are NEVER carried out in countries where the children are happy with their color. Imagine the children's answers from Africa or Indonesia. We know exactly what they'd say and so would the producers. Such a programme would never be aired to a white audience as they'll be unable to feel superior toward other races.

  • @LordMalice6d9 STOP WATCHING GLEN BECK!!! OMG!!!

  • @kaliyuta This video and others like it simply push a bunch of ridiculous Cultural Marxist BS. It has been proven that people of varying ethic and racial backgrounds prefer to be around their own kind and socialize and interact with people of their own racial group as an evolutionary psychological trait. Its not surprising to me that Cultiural and political Marxists try to brainwash people into thinking that white people or anyone else prefering their own kind is somehow racist or unnatural.

  • This is fucking depressing beyond words.These children are so sweet and cute.I would love to be their teacher in their school and teach them that they are so beautiful.Me as a fair complected mixed race woman,this painfully shows why i have suffered such racism from those of darker complexions.This shows that this self hating mentality is almost karmically,and subconsciously passed on generation after generation.The girl in the blue shirt is so sweet omg!!

  • ...sure there are differences: when the black kids go to HS they join gangs and become dope-dealers..LOL

  • @rosettaspice Mm, I might be inclined to agree with you, except that I personally know the lead researcher in the study, and her motivations are solid. Now whether or not CNN can be trusted to make sense of the results in any meaningful way, I suppose that remains up for debate.

  • This is some bullshit study to demean blacks and boost cooper's crappy show. He does shit like this when his ratings slump. There are other cultures in the world dumbass, Chinese, Indians (and I mean from India) , go ask them similar questions and post that. Oh! What did you say? That would have no media value! There is more value in fueling turmoil between blacks and whites. I see.

  • There is a book called "Brown Angels" by Walter Dean Myers, it's an album of real photos and poems about the beauty of BROWN skin. Every black child should have this book.

  • Give me all the brown children and let me teach them for about a week I bet $1,00000000000000 that they will LOVE thier beautiful BROWN skin !
