Answer 1

Jane Elliot in her famous exercise that people practice based on the eye colour and skin colour to treat others differently. She wanted to prove that how difficult it would be for someone to be in a place where everyone ill-treat them and bully them in order to show the world that racism hurts. It was a time that blue eyed people were promoting that they were the superior race both physically and intellectually but she wanted to prove otherwise. So she chose people and made them sit according to their eye colour such as blue, brown. She deliberately allowed others to bully the blue eyed people and made them cry and frustrated. She did it to make the world understand how hard it is to be racially abused and bullied.

Today this video or the exercise itself has a lot of implications as the world has become a village where people from different races and ethnicities live together in harmony. We also witness occasional disturbances in terms of racism but there is also an institutionalized racism that is practised by the white patriots who run the governments in some countries. Equality is the only word that should govern not just humanity but the entire earth and its creations.
