Reaction To The Monkey's Experiment Genogram

491 Words2 Pages

1.What are your reactions to the video?
• I am shocked at how the people in this experiment, actually learned from it. I did not think that they were going to take anything from this experiment and apply it to their own lives. I did not enjoy listening to the things that the parents have taught their children in that time, but I am most grateful that there had been a teacher such as herself who wanted to teach the little ones the right way.
2. What aspect of the video impacted you the most? Why do you think it had the impact it did?
• What impacted me most, the adult experiment. It is easy to teach a child who is still in a developmental change to treat others fairly, but seeing adult et beside themselves because the shoe was on the other …show more content…

Explain.
• I felt a bit angered and testy, because once I understood the goal of the experiment, I was disappointed in how the one lady in the last to segments acted towards the instructor, but in the end acted as though it did not matter that she was going through what she was going through, everyone has been discriminated before and I felt that she was saying that we all should just live with it and deal with it on our own. By her response and others sitting with her, I felt the brown eyed people still put themselves in the blue eyed people’s shoes and learned more from the lesson.
4. What similarities exist between racism in the time the original video (of the school children) was filmed and how, right here in North Carolina, we treat members of the Hispanic population? Gays/Lesbians? Muslims? What can we learn from the video about our treatment of these groups?
• Taking advice from these segments, I know I would never want to make someone feel less than what they are, nor make them feel like they are anything but a human being. Learning from this video that no one should be treated differently, picked on, exiled, and all things demoralizing because of their skin color and

  • A Class Divided Summary

    919 Words  | 4 Pages

    In the PBS documentary A Class Divided third grade teacher Jane Elliot tried an experiment to let a class of her third graders experience discrimination. For Jane Elliot’s third grade class in a small town in Iowa discrimination was unheard of because there was only white Christians living in the town. She separated her class based on eye color, so one day she made the kids with blue eyes be superior and the kids with brown eyes be inferior. She did multiple test to see if the way they were treated changed the way they learned. The next day she switched it, so the kids with blue eyes were now inferior and the kids with brown eyes were superior.

It wasn’t until the end of the video where I heard my favorite quote by Terry Tafoya, “I think that’s the way of being two spirited, trying to figure out what not automatic but what’s most appropriate for you.

  • War On Chicken Summary

    1119 Words  | 5 Pages

    The documentary was informative about information that is discussed globally, but is not explained in full detail about the negative aspects that non-political people actually see. For example, the “war on drugs,” was originally started by President Nixon. The rumored main objective was to throw black people away and antiwar left. I believe that white people were fearful of black people after the 13th amendment was passed, which formally ended slavery in 1865. From 1865 till now, some people still express that fear because black people have all the freedoms and rights that everyone else has.

    The idea is to take 10 girls from around israel to come together for a couple weeks and create friendships with one another and then to follow these girls to see what has happened to thee connections in 7 years. During this little film they show interviews of all the girls and this one response kinda set up the whole conflict and told us what it is all about in just a few words. “When i look at these girls as individuals, they are my friends, but when i look at them as a group and remember what they did to my father, they are the enemy” (-Ina, My So Called Enemy). This shows just how much of a hate and discriminatory centered world she was born into. These ladies all have no reason to hate the other race, yet they still do.

I will take what I learned from this story and apply it in my classroom as a teacher. I will be empathetic towards each and every student and their family and where they come from. There is value in every culture and if we take the time to understand it we will build more relationships than we could ever imagine. It will be incredible to see the way student’s lives are impacted when one person takes the time to try and learn and be a part of their culture and values it no matter

    There may be questions on whether West is qualified to relay this information since he is an ‘outsider’ considering his background on the topic. Contrary to that aspect of ethos, the other angle is in the values that the video renders: the worth placed on the ‘underdogs’ of society, for they may have the resilience to continue

    I choose to view the video clip, Maggie Simpson in “The longest Daycare”. There are some entertaining pieces in the clip one being in the beginning when they test Maggie’s intelligence with the equipment manufactured by Often Wrong Technologies and going through the security check in the beginning. However, the video reveals how society often views people’s intelligence without often knowing how smart that person maybe. Maggie shows her intelligence when she encounters her first case of bullying.

  • Gender Revolution Reflection

    The biggest reaction I had to some parts of this documentary was anger, and it was a lot more than just that simple word. My feelings could also be described as furious, fuming, infuriated, enraged and many other words that I will not continue to list since by now you should know how I felt. One of the first things that really provoked these emotions was when they talked about intersex babies and adults. These babies were born different than “normal” babies and therefore doctors and parents made decisions to do surgery to either make the baby a girl or boy and raise it as so. The problem with this is that the baby didn’t have their voice heard, and I understand that babies cannot talk, but the parents should have waited until the child could make a decision.

    The idea behind this study I believe is incredible as people dedicated a year of their lives to go and live with the Inuit people to study their culture. One of the men in the beginning of the film said that if we “lose our history, we are nothing”, this is an important statement because children need to pass down our history for future generations. A boy in class said that he was starving after he got home and he was too lazy to make himself a sandwich. This statement was compelling to the researchers as they needed to reevaluate how they teach the children.

    Reflect on this video and create a teachable moment for a child who has parents with racist beliefs. My reflection on Mothers of Hate is full of complex emotions. The first emotion I felt was sick to my stomach because these women are mothers that are indoctrinating their children to hate people that are different then themselves. Also, how willing the mother was to discard her child if hypnotically, the child married someone different from their race.
