"I do not think it matters what color they are" you go girl at the end!

And let the ignorant comments and stupid fucking debates that always occur on youtube begin! Let me come back to this video in 3 days to see all the racist comments and debating that results from people acting as if they have a Ph.D in everything while they sit safe and secure behind their computer screen with no EGO at stake. hahahaha

@sourstraw16 I'm not asian but I understand what you mean. This really just shows a grand scale of how ignorant our country still is :( This was a painful video to watch.

And people wonder why "white-washing" is alright in Hollywood. ::Rolls eyes.:: Hollywood needs to embrace better representation of minority races.

they did not do any tests on Asian kids..i feel discriminated against :( jk

[dale2007ne]

they shouldnt have arranged the kids from light to dark...automatically creates a bias off of your first answer if you are asking oppositional questions right?

[bauhbjingles]

Racism from kindergartners? Give me a break! Kids see things for how they are. It's adults that make things worse by trying to make things the way they 'should' be.

points to the kids who said, "...who cares?"

[Forset1]

...Therefore, the only trait they can associate with themselves is color. The smarter kid will be that most similar to the test subject; and the dumbest will be that which is on the opposite end of the spectrum. BIASED, BIASED AND BIASED. All bullshit to make whites hate themselves a little bit more.

[Forset1]

This study is so biased. They show a row of identical figures of children, each one darker than the previous one. They ask the test subjects which of them is smarter, meaner or whatever; the test subjects are therefore obliged to make a decision based exclusively on "color" considerations (since there are no other differences between the images). And then they are surprised that the children give color as the reason for their choice, when color is the only difference between items.

@GunMetalEngineer America is already divide and have white supremacy ideologies, I dont think this test is aiming for that, I see it as making people more aware of how we can influence our children and how those same views can carry on into adulthood which needs to be corrected. There is nothing wrong with being aware, because people definitely have views like this.

@GuardianAngel5150 your point?
