Darned cockwombles.
Did anyone catch this on Channel 4 (sorry, UK-specific question) this week? Say what you like about the woman's methods (she split a group of volunteers between brown eyes and blue eyes, treating the former as the dominant group and the latter as the subjugated group), but as far as people's reactions to the 'task' went, it was astonishingly accurate in bringing out people's lack of empathy towards the oppressed, and the willingness of people to pretend that oppression simply is not there if it is not signposted.
Really depressing, but brilliant TV, I thought.
