One day in 1968, Jane Elliott, a teacher in a small, all-white Iowa town, divided her third-grade class into blue-eyed and brown-eyed groups and gave them a daring lesson in discrimination. This is the story of that lesson, its lasting impact on the children, and its enduring power 30 years later.

I remember watching this in a sociology class.

I wish I had seen it in grade school so the lesson would be more impactful. By the time you're in college, you GET that this happens, and that humans can act irrationally (nurture not nature).
