stereotype

The students in the class have many different ideas in thinking. The stereotype which they have means the way they think from childhood. For example when the Japanese man was identified himself, and talking about his country by comparing between Japan and other countries. Also, about the Pakistani and Sikh from India when the teacher ask the Sikh to sit near Ali, he refused to sit with him, and he prefer to sit near the Italian, because he is a Muslim. Even the woman from France had a big impact, when the man was fighting to sit near her because she is a beautiful woman.

Blue eyes and Brown eyes

We watched the short video in class together for 1 hour about discrimination, and it talked about a reunion in 1984. The students were re-united to watch the video of the lesson, which was made by the teachers.

In the first class Jane Elliot tried an experimental lesson. She started to ask them, what's the difference between black people and white people, and their answers was negatively, and the reaction shown bad feeling to a black aspect, and the white is completely different from them. Then she started to separate the students in two parts, first one is a blue eyes group and the second one is a brown eyes group. Firstly, She talked about a blue eyes, and until a blue eyes they get proud, and think that they are especial than a brown eyes. However, the brown eyes was upset from her, and they dislike her comparing. As will as, it created a bad relation between the groups until two day.

On the third day, she found the problem became more complex  than before, because they were friendly.
When the teacher re-united them again, they seem that they  want be a friendly without any problem preferring.
