It was such an effective way for her to teach empathy around difference and also absurdity. I also thought that this sort of thing would never fly in school now...parents would be way too sensitive to their children experiencing any sorts of feelings. By coincidence, I was watching a live stream music fundraiser for black lives matter the same evening and they showed a follow up video to this one where this teacher was about 20-30 years older, giving a lecture at a college. I love how she very plainly and objectively points out the absurdity of racism.
