An experiment called "Angry Eyes" reversed minority and majority roles in a classroom to demonstrate the effects of discrimination. The teacher gave preferential treatment to students with brown eyes and discriminated against those with blue eyes, making the blue-eyed students feel like real-life minorities. While the treatment was light, it effectively showed the blue-eyed students how minorities feel with daily discrimination, as they struggled emotionally in their new minority role.

1. Angry eyes was an experiment to try to teach her students the effects of being a minority.
In the experiment the minority was people with white skin and blue eyes and the brown eyed
people were the majority. This experiment truly worked because the minority felt just like the
real-life minorities feel on an everyday basis but they could not handle themselves as well
because they are not use to that sort of treatment. The blue eyed people broke down after Ms.
Elliot would just yell at them or discriminate lightly when the minorities outside the experiment
actually deal with this every day and do not cry because of some harsh talking to. This
experiment may seem cruel at first, but overall it is very effective to get the point across.
