![]() In 1968, the day after Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated, the students in a small third-grade class couldn’t understand why he had been killed. King had been the “Hero of the Month” the previous February. Their teacher, Jane Elliott, wanted to help them understand the enormity of his death. She decided to try a daring classroom exercise on the meaning of discrimination, as detailed in the classic film, THE OF THE STORM. What she taught those children and the effect her lesson had on them throughout their lives is explored in this award winning follow-up, A CLASS DIVIDED. First broadcast in 1985, A CLASS DIVIDED was hailed as a “riveting, and potentially life-changing hour” and was honored with the Sidney Hillman Prize and an Emmy Award for outstanding informational programming. Over the years, A CLASS DIVIDED has become a classic – a powerful exploration into the nature of prejudice which has been used in classrooms, corporations, prisons and other governmental and educational settings. Running time: 60 minutes This award-winning documentary is enhanced by a comprehensive Facilitator’s Guide applicable to all ages.
![]() If you think "it couldn't happen here" or "it wouldn't happen now", this may prove to be a bit of an "Eye Opener"! Jane Elliott, the internationally acclaimed diversity champion, conducts her "Blue-Eyed, Brown-Eyed" exercise in Glasgow with thirty-five volunteers from across the United Kingdom. Many of the blue-eyed participants were shocked at their own reactions to what for many of them was the new experience of being powerless. Many of the brown-eyed participants were shocked at how easy they found it to go along with what was happening, even though they knew it was wrong. They all now have a better understanding of the systematic nature of racism, as well as the awareness of their own actions - or inactions - can reinforce and perpetuate it. "Eye Opener" shows this exercise is as relevant and necessary in the UK today as it was in Riceville, Iowa more than thirty years ago. This award-winning documentary is enhanced by a comprehensive Facilitator’s Guide applicable to all ages. Running time: 33 minutes
![]() Hailed as a “fascinating revisit” to the famous 1970 blue eyed/ brown eyed exercise in discrimination by Jane Elliott, this film documents the effects of racial prejudice with startling force and emotional intensity. Taking pigmentation – in this case, eye color – as an arbitrary dividing line, Jane Elliott builds a microcosm of contemporary American society, compelling her more privileged blue eyed participants to live in another world for the longest two and a half hours of their lives. THE ANGRY EYE skillfully interweaves the young adults in the exercise with post-session interviews that show the participants struggling to come to terms with their recent experiences. Through the intense and often painful emotions that the exercise provokes shines a hope that, someday, we overcome the capricious lines that divide us – if only we can learn to accept and appreciate our differences. This award-winning documentary is enhanced by a comprehensive Facilitator’s Guide applicable to all ages. Running time: 35 minutes
