I kinda lol'd eventought it's racist...

[·UηİŦ··]

This is silly.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

However, only that one girl was like "..None." And that other girl actually said she was darker than the Caucasian babby, if anything.

This is pretty much an accurate analogy to real lief, if 2 out of 12/13 people can be modified to fit 7somethingbillion people, or at least more than 3.5/4ths of the Earth's population ._.

Silly Stereotypes being taught to childrin.

I also lol'd but then srs'd when the last segment with the one kid that chose the Caucasian babby as "the babby I luk liek", and struggled to find a reason why ._.

Also, remind me not to go to Mexico, or South anytime soon. Especially cause I'm Canadian, too.

THAT'S RACIST!


Where I live it's kind of weird. It's sort of reverse sometimes.

You are a good little girl.

IMO, this is stupid. Wouldn't you pick the white doll too? Why? Because you grow with same region people. If your parents and relatives are white, you get use to it and feel more safe. You could call it a natural instinct. You can't remove this called 'racism' because it isn't racism. It's deep inside us, in our heads.
Also, kids are still evolving on that age and doesn't completely understand right from wrong and their value. E.g, breaking two glasses accidently is worse than one intentionally. So you can't really expect so called right answer from that question, which is bad doll and not.
Still nice research. Interesting...

Exactly, they can't decide, they reflect what is taught to them.

They are too young to decide.

It's kind of sad, but that's just the society we live in. Children just pick up from what they've learned from the adults around them, so depending on their background and their family life, it's not really a surprise.

The black doll looks scary, I'm afraid it would mug me in my sleep...

Try that test here in Hawaii. Watch it be the other way around

Edit: I suppose I should add this.

Hawaii is in no way racist towards whites. At least, not the vast majority. I just added that in there because for one, whites are a minor here. Because of that, they see a lot more "brown" than "white". Plus that some of those white people are just plain stupid (and make me hate being white) don't help at all when whites are a minor.
This is just what I see though. I don't see hardly any locals being stupid, rude, or obnoxious, and I really admire that about them.

This isn't necessarily a bad thing. Basically, the children COULD just be making those decisions based off of what they live around, and what they hear and are influenced by, but it's also just as likely that they're simply choosing white over black as that's their race, so they're naturally more comfortable with that. I bet you any money, you get a bunch of black children to do that same test, and they will do the exact same just reversed. Because that's what they're used to seeing, and that's who they are. So depending on how you look at it, it could be more or less bad.

Their own race? Most of them were much more black than white.
