What struck me the most was the speed and ease with which the color of their eyes became an indicator or factor to consider and judge one another by. It was shocking how quickly the kids adapted to this new norm and played out their discriminatory and prejudiced roles with out explicit instruction to do so. I think that this experiment really is interesting in reflecting on Module 1 and the history of how race was developed as a social and cultural construct such that it is now so ingrained. It has gone on and on and on, so now when people like the teacher say, that was a lie. There isn't any difference between blue eyed and brown eyed people or there isn't any difference between white skinned and brown skinned people, too many people are entrenched in the lie. They believe the lie. Unlike the children who were told the next day, we have had years, decades, and centuries to believe the lie, adopt the lie, integrate the lie so much that it is not even conscious. It is implicit and now we have to work so hard to get rid of the lie, remove the lie from our conscious and subconscious thoughts.
