So this will be justifiably stopped, and good riddance.

Meanwhile, this same practice will continue, without the stars, to the lowest rung on the social order in middle school anyways, and nobody will bat an eye or lift a finger or so much as raise their voice in outrage.

Dumbasses!! This kind of experiment was outlawed in the US years ago when some college did the Prisoner & Guard roles. I want to say it was Berkley, but I'm not sure. It also didnt end well.

The Stanford Prison Experiment.

Splitting people up into groups is a staple of certain types of discrimination awareness course - but they're designed for adults, and even then the adults are often very upset by the experience.

I agree with you, Rei. Middleschool is fucked up enough already without teachers adding to it.

And weren't Jews forced to wear a *6* pointed star? They even got the shape of the star wrong.

That's because they were making the children sneeches. Not Jews.

Actually I think this sort of school experiment could be incrediably invaluable if done right. I think the media is blowing it way out of proportion.

I was just going to ask the same question. Very cool miniseries (at least I thought so at the time. I haven't seen it since).

If you educate some one are you not teaching them to think, learn, evaluate and form rational opinions based on facts. It’s not supposed to be about social experiments to force them to view the world through some one else’s politics Jewish holocaust or not. Teach them to think and they can think for them self’s or is that to scary a concept. :mad:

I think this child was perhaps mentally retarded if that is all they got out of the experiment.

Do they have to pad the corners of the desks at that school?
