[Dirtywayne80]

:-\

This is some Mother-flipN BULL but it's JUST what our society is all about!

And the mess starts from the inside out on many levels.

@Dirtywayne80 glad to see you came out of hiding

@popdreams , now what would you think the result would be if this is was conducted in an Asian country?

[CosinusPW]

It's just a sociology experiment, get over it people.

[popdreams]

Do you think this video would have been made & promoted if the answers were the opposite of what we see here? Think about it. Mind control simply means getting you to think in a particular way. If you've been bought up to think black is inferior then this simply reinforces that view. You're either elated or saddened by these results depending on your conditioning. The results would be different if the experiment was taken in any African country but such a video would never be aired in the west.

none ' brown doll is the best ! c:

f ' racism !

I am glad boys don't have all that. Toy guns and cars and trucks, the type of toys most boys play with don't have a race difference but when she asked the black boys they chose the white doll. Someone has taught them to feel this way. If you watch commercial advertising and see models and actresses on TV the majority of nice looking women are white. Did the lady who was giving the test white? If she was, maybe the kids were afraid to tell her they didn't prefer the white doll.

'I disagree...I never noticed colors as a kid I had hite, black , and Mexican dolls my mom never bought me White "baby" dolls because I wasn't white, and I never cared lol.....and white girls have lower self esteem..examp. all the plastic/injections they get...these kids are just brainwashed...this is a eurocentric society in the end media promotes these things....

[debayzee]

the test is not a fair one, how many black dolls as this kid seen in her life time b4 this test? If a child is exposed to only a black doll right from the dawn of their life, then years later they would not select a white doll as their best toy.. poor experiment.

why do we even refer to ourselves as "black" when our skin is brown? This is out of touch with reality

[Jayjen35]

... If all they ever hear are negative things about the AA men and women around them, that is primarily what they will learn about those around them and about themselves. I believe that the black community has accepted far too many negative images as indicative of "all or most" of us and this experiment shows how that impacts our children.

[Jayjen35]

I believe I remember this. It goes further when the person doing the study asks the kids why they don't like the black doll, or why its bad. They say that the black doll sells drugs, it shoots and kills people, etc. It begs the question, what images are their parents allowing them to see, and which they are encouraging them to explore. Also what do they hear their parents talk about. We forget that even thought they're small children hear and understand much more than we give them credit for
