Doll test - The effects of racism on children (ENG)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 бер 2016
- The "doll test" is a psychological experiment designed in the 1940s in the USA to test the degree of marginalization felt by African American children caused by prejudice, discrimination and racial segregation. Given the considerable increase of the phenomenon of migration in Europe in recent years we decided to re-create the test with Italian children. In fact, thousands of migrants land each year on the Mediterranean coast in search of a better future, some to improve their economic conditions, others are political refugees, fleeing from war zones, discrimination and sometimes ethnic, religious or political persecution. 2015 was considered the year of the 'invasion' that threatened to wipe out social, economic and cultural balances in Europe. The increasingly close surveillance of borders and frontiers could determine, however, a risk to definitively annihilate any possibility of dialogue or integration. In every European country live many second, third and fourth generation migrants, who are now fully-fledged citizens of these nations, like these Italian children. Yet, for many, they remain 'different', 'foreigners', a dangerous definition that, in recent times, could be illegitimately paired with the phenomenon of terrorism. Without a serious political and social change in perspective, we risk dangerously distorting the perception we have of others, and the perception that others have of themselves.

I was kind of happy when the brown boy said that the black doll was pretty not the white doll . I'm glad that he loves his skin color.

??? He said that skin color was bad tho???
It is bad
It's fucked up, when other kids say that the black doll is ugly people are like "omg so sad" and when this boy say that the white doll is ugly they're like "Yesss, I'm so proud of him!". Both are racism and I don't get why do you think that racism is ONLY white people hating black people.
@@cl-ji9ib because they are black kids so it showed that they don't really like their skin colour. It ain't a question of racism. That why people are proud of the little guy and sad for the others.😊

@@FamilyOfMadness SHUT UP!!!!!!!! JUST SHUT UP!!!
There so many thing going around her mind ...😢 Looking at her eyes though... 😢
I remember being a kid and getting my first black barbie. I was so excited because I had a black friend from school and I finally had a doll that reminded me of her. I always liked pretending my dolls were people in my life. I was so excited to show my friend and I told her the doll reminded me of her. Her mom was offended by me saying that. I didn't understand why as a kid. I mean, I was a little redheaded kid and didn't even have a redheaded barbie, so the standard blonde one was always "myself". Looking back now I guess she assumed I meant "black people all look alike" i don't know...She was my favorite barbie though and I always thought she was the prettiest barbie I owned. She looked different from all my other barbies and it made her unique in my eyes. I also loved my friend. I was always an outcast in school and was bullied for how I looked. She never bullied me and she liked me for me. Her and I could rely on each other and would comfort each other when the other kids were being mean. My family moved away and never saw her again. For years I had wished to go back because even at my new school kids would bully me. I no longer had that person who would comfort. I was heartbroken and still miss her dearly. I hope she's doing well and I hope things went better for her after I left.
I liked my black barbie, but she had weaker material for some reason and her leg broke. From that moment on, I did not play with her as much. She was an official though.

Guys please do not write hate comments about those kids. They are kids!!! It's important to recognize that children are HIGHLY impressionable and can absorb biases from the environment around them. This doesn't imply that the kids are themselves bad or good; rather, it only underscores the significance of addressing the broader issue of society's influence on young minds (especially when it comes to topics such as racism)❤
As someone who was bullied in primary school because of the colour of my skin, kids are not innocent.
@Angela Peters
This is kinda random but I was bullied for being ugly and stupid and not being good enough. Apparently because I was myself and I appreciated myself.

@Sekhobe Sekgobe
Best technique is to buy your kid both, a black doll and "white" doll and ask him/her to make a story about the dolls meet each other and becoming friends.
Ruben, I want to be separate from you blacks.
My impression is that these children are responding, not what they think, but what they think the adult expects of them. You can see it in how they hesitate about certain responses, and in their expressions. If I am right, it is heartbreaking that almost all of those children are convinced that adults expect those answers from them.
I agree
bro u can see it in their eyes that they do not want to do this

I hope they hugged them and readsured tjem "neither is bad. Neither is ugly, or evil, or worse. YOU are beautiful. Please always embrace yourself."
Poor children, I didnt know they were socialized this way
You can see the shame and the sadness on their faces when they have to identify themselves as more like the black doll. Heartbreaking to watch knowing what they must go through to have those kinds of feelings instilled in them.

Hi
J-HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPEEEE
Honestly, I think it’s what the parents taught their kids.. when I was young I never thought any particular race was ugly, pretty, nice, bad .. etc
They also get it from school. Especially nowadays elementary and middle school kids are making racist jokes, saying slurs, etc. (at least where I live)
@@Sorrowewhere do you live though? Here in my school we can't even say someone is girly
@@ZphyZphyer I live in Apache junction which is in arizona.
Apparently here almost everyone is racist for some reason.
Yes it is the parents fault. Honestly it made me believe that I was ugly and lighter people were better. It still does but it's how we have been manipulated
My third grader told me he doesn't like dark skinned kids in his class because they cause trouble in class and are usually mean or rude. He is a mixed kid, too. His mom has dark skin.
His best friend is dark skinned, from South America.
Racism is definitely learned and part of it stems from other parents raising really rude kids who don't respect social conventions or have empathy. Its a cultural issue.
I can't just lie to him and tell him he's wrong. All i can say is that may be true of the kids in your class and that it will be up to you to determine who is rude and mean. Be careful with the trap of predudice but be aware and be honest with yourself.
If it happens to be mostly dark skinned people than thats not your fault buddy!
I remember that as a child, around 8-10, I used to collect baby dolls. It didn't matter which color doll I had; I had white dolls and black dolls. I cared for them both equally and got them their own baby supplies (I was taking care of them with real baby stuff I brought with allowance, lol), and one day I went into a store with one specific baby doll, and she had fair skin. I have light brown skin (just to let you know), and I put the doll in the shopping cart seat where a kid would usually sit (I don't know what the seat is called), and this woman with light skin told my mother, "Why does she have a doll with a skin color that doesn't match hers?" It's really saddening that racism is put on children and makes them feel this way. Just remember that no matter what race you are, you are beautiful. Our skin is nothing to be ashamed about, its just who you are! 🥰💚
Oh my god, I am so sorry that happened. I know that has been said so many times, but I just want to send my condolences. Just wondering, sorry if you don’t want to answer, but what did your mother say when the woman told her that?
@@Kyndal-pq2ie Its okay, really. I don't quite remember what she said, but she wasn't really happy about what the lady told her.

In fact, I respect them and salute them way higher than people who have dark skin tones and then claim they are white, whilst looking at themselves as superior than their brothers. (I'm brown and I know many who are that way in my society.)
Not the kid with the Afro.

When you ask a kid which one is bad and good and they answer it very spontaneous, then you ask him which one looks like you he get shocked he matching things together for the first time as a kid that is why they sad

when he asked "Which one is more like you" I'm pretty sure they all got the idea
for every question, i’d point at both dolls💀

@@SoltyJ asian
@@korososes asian people arent both Black and white
I think this test is absolutelly wrong. Categories "nice" or "pretty" are ok, they say about a child's prefers. But category "bad/good" is different. What I see is that a child sitting if front of two dolls has to choose one doll aswering each question. The children are ok when aswering about pretty, nice, white/black, because these categories don't include "bad/good". But look at them when they're asked "which one is bad?" They still think that they HAVE TO choose ONE! Why even ask? I mean... If we don't pose bad (or stupid) questions we won't get bad (or stupid) answers. Asking this they made the children think that black is bad and they are similar to this. What if those kids didn't even think that way? Maybe I'm wrong.... But I wouldn't put kids in such situation where they have to choose black or white.
The fact that the girl at the end felt offended by the fact that she was black was especially heartbreaking for me. That shows that she feels as though it is an insult to be called black, and therefor to be black is wrong. Meaning she feels inferior because of it. It's sad that the effect of racism has even touched our children. What is this world that we are living in?
@Arvind Emmanuel: i totally agree with you. and what makes it so bad is that the original "Human" has taken on the ways of "Mankind." most say ( and think ) well, same thing. mankind is just a way to say all humans on earth making up mankind as one but no. I beg to differ. Mankind is close to the human in likeness. He has two arms, two legs, and a head ( Arm, Leg, Leg, Arm, Head, acronym: ALLAH ) but he ( mankind ) lacks the property of "Hue" and you can't just give yourself an attribute that you don't possess. this is one of 3 of the most hidden secrets to the world that's right in our faces. the Human is the only one that can produce multicolored races. This is not just by chance. God did this so that we could live forever and so could he through us. Mankind does not have this ability. Even when God said, "let there be light," it came from within triple blackness, void, nothing. as the tree that bares fruit is within the seed beneath the darkness of earth. it shall bring an abundance of life. that's the difference between human and mankind.
You do realize this is the sole purpose of this video to make you think that spreading a agenda. For all we know they could have told them to say this. We need to think before we assume and hell they are not even speaking English not sure what country they are from which have been taught this.
@@amrit1870 it literally says at the beginning of the video 'Italian children'. Italy, it's in Italy
I am personally offended when someone calls me black. To me it is like someone calling me colored, which is much more offensive. I am not a color, I am a human being. I had met people who’s skin tone resembles purple, grey, silver, orange, and I don’t consider them a “color”. I prefer to be referred to as African American, not colored, not black, nothing else.
I think it's because they chose the black doll as bad that she got offended. That's what I saw in the video at least.
It is so heartbreaking. No one is good or bad. When they asked "Which one looked like you" it made me realize. Hope that we can stop racism together, 'kay?

Watching this brought me to tears. The way their demeanor shifts to visible shame, pain and sadness once they’re asked to identify the doll that looks like them, and identify the “bad” doll just shatters my heart. These sweet babies have internalized such horrible ideas about themselves, no child should ever feel like this about who they are, especially in regards to race. I can’t believe this kind of hate is still something that adults are projecting onto our children. We need to be better. We need to do better. They’re depending on us.
why they know, its your fault for letting them in a white country so they can grow up and feel like shit, your compasion caused this mess

White is naturally prettier and more endearing than 💩
I don’t think that this has much to do with racism. Humans are intrinsically predisposed to prefer light colors over dark colors. We associate darkness with evil, wickedness, and the unknown. It makes sense that most of the children found the white doll more appealing.
I cried because they look so sad and ashamed that the "bad doll" looks like them.
Yep, black people are taught to hate themselves as soon as they come out there mother womb. So sad :(
R riri no the boy was taught to love himself and the others probably just probably never bring it up, but at school the black kids are always looked at or made fun of because they look different it's not the kids fault either there's more whites around the native countrys so they don't see blacks as much.
Funny thing is, half of them weren't even black. Like that white Arab kid who chose the black doll over the white doll when asked which doll looks like him, even though he looks more like the white doll. But that's what black culture does, they worship lighter skin and then convince their kids and half breeds to hate their skin so they can all worship whites together.
R riri They sure are, as they are taught by other blacks. They are then taught that it's the white man's fault for this, even though black culture has worshipped lighter skin since ancient times.

We put five black children in a liminal space, asking them questions with suggestive tones. We also cut and edited the whole thing and added an omnious music.
YOU WONT BELIEVE THEIR ANSWERS.
no clickbait.
This is the biggest crock of bull ever. Number one the one asking questions is putting ideas in the child's mind. Why not ask how you feel about each doll instead of forcing kids how to think. Also, we need to blame society. Since we are young children, we are taught at young age that dark/black is evil, bad, and ugly. Most evil characters in fairy tales are depicted as dark or are seen wearing black. What about witches? black cats? Vampires? Why do we wear black to a funeral and why is white associated with a wedding? Remember Snow White is good and pretty. Why are we told to come home before dark? I could go on and on here, but this doll test means nothing.
I am a white person and seeing black children do this literally made me cry physically. God this hurts my heart. No child should ever have to be made to feel this way about themselves! Black people are so beautiful and deserve love and recognition White people are also beautiful and deserve recognition. Every person no matter what race, deserves to be seen, heard and loved!

I remember seeing this in my psychology training years ago...seeing it again now is absolutely heartbreaking. It reinforces how even subtle micro-aggressions can change the trajectory of a human being's future, and completely and insidiously insert a lie so deeply internalized as to affect one's sense of self for a lifetime. We must work every day to become more aware of our own awareness, language, and culturally internalized belief systems and how these inform and influence our words and actions.
I saw a black person for the first time in my life when I was 6 or 7 (you can rarely see people of color in our country). When I was walking with my uncle, I saw a black girl holding a box with a toy inside. I pointed at her and said "look! you see that girl?". He started lecturing me about how we shouldn't treat people of color differently and that it's impolite to just point like that. And then I just went like "no, look at the toy in her hands! I have the same one!"
And that's how I accidentally defeated racism. It's a proof that it can only be taught.

I'm white male (from country with fascist regime), but i know you can't judge who is bad/good just by looking at a person. Deeds are what makes us bad or good. But those children mostly are too young and nice, so they don't tell interviewer that his question is incorrect.

Not shooting any shade, but does anyone else feel that this test is not really a good one? Why not instead say that there are dolls for them to play with and then leave the room and see which one they play with. Then ask them why? I don't know I feel there is a better way....
If you read the info at the beginning, they are recreating a test done many years ago, and the children in the vid were as honest as the ones in the original. It’s a sad reality, however, it’s a well done test to see how these children perceive these dolls, based on today’s racial issues. The children are not forced to pick only one doll, they could have said “neither” or “both”, but being small they answered in a way that was genuine. Even their reactions towards the end is important. It shows us how damaging a child’s perception of race can be towards themselves or others.
I feel like you could've made like 50 different baby dolls. More than 2 types of people.

@@liluglyboi3636 dude...we have our own opinions...and I respect your opinion. Just saying..and I go to school bruh I expect you to learn " respect " for my opinion. Not all I say is real ok dude? Chill..
Are you joking....”Because it’s all black”
Someone help that little girl
Star Heaven to me she seemed like the only kid there who wasn't uncomfortable while the others looked like they were about to cry
Star Heaven lol nigga
Oh ya ya oh ya ya don’t call me that....😑
I’m not black I’m white but she still made me mad just cuz someone is all black don’t mean u are bad I have some black friends and they are nice nicer than me anyway
Star Heaven The only way to help her and other young black children is to separate our children from white children until they grow up to develop their critical minds.
0:58 smartest kid there. “ this shit is boring”
Just because they choose the white over black doll doesn’t mean their racist because it could just be preference
Which one is ugly?
Me:*Points at myself*
Edit:Wow didn't expect to get so many likes thank you so much ❤
Tord Larsson Same
Lmao
thanks for wiping out my tears
Your calling your parents ugly because you got the same looks from one of your parents
You are all beautiful!(:
By asking “which is the bad one”, they are implying to these children that one of them IS indeed bad. They should have asked something like “do you think one of these dolls is better than the other? If so, which one is better.“
The questions asked in this specific order have the potential to traumatize these kids, geez
You are right !
I would hope and always do during these types of tests, that a sane and intelligent adult is dispelling all myths and setting the kids straight before they go home. I hope that is what happens! I hear you!
I understand your point, but it’s not about whether the dolls are bad. It’s about IF one of the dolls is bad then which one is more likely to be. This is also a modern recreation of a psychological study done back in the civil rights movement, so they asked the same questions. Also, if you use “better” the meaning gets twisted while “good” and “bad” are completely universal.
@@geordonfain2171 They literally sad "Which one IS bad". They gave the children no choice but to pick one.
Well they wanted the kids to say “Neither is bad” or “They are both good” Bot exactly implying that one IS bad.
You can see some of them already holding their tears after the 1st or 2nd question, it's very heartbreaking and i don't understand why they think one is prettier than another, everyone is special and unique and you shouldn't make fun of someone
It’s heartbreaking to watch their smiles falter and the way their eyes just convey the pain as they ask “which one is like you?”
All races are beautiful…nobody should face racism, especially not kids :(
there arent even diffrent races, just colors, because the only diffrents lies in the color.
@@Rayenajlani_001u're right
Kinda made me wanna cry (the vid)
There is only one race if human
There only exist one race of human in the world the others are now skeletons waiting to be discovered and people are stupid enough to divise people based on color difference (which is the dumbest thing a species could have ever done)
If racism was a human.. I would have already killed it!

Aashna Rose it is!

I guess there is only one reason. It's not racism. Just the light is better than darkness. The nature proves this statement.
Racism is natural in this sense
This is heartbreaking. Knowing that people still comment and watch this in recent years shows that this video is really making a different.
“You offended me”
- This doll is black and it’s mean.
Honey, you offended yourself secretly..
No!! She is a child and she told with her experience. She is the reflection of society 😶
Baishakhi Sahoo calm tits
Are you dumb?
Bitch if yo don’t go sit yo snowflake lookin ass down somewhere
Future feminist.She will be offended by the light skined girls getting more attention from men,and blame society,when she herself would rather be like that too.
Watching kids feel ashamed of feeling more related to a black doll than a white doll just breaks my heart, it tells alot about our society, it's just not fair.
Stop blaming every little thing on society ITS HER FUCKING OPINION SOCIETY DOESN'T CONTROL IT
Free Wifi yeah their opinion tht they should b ashamed to b black. The world hasnt changed. A bit.
It's fake mate. One of the kids changed his mind half way through
How do you know that its all because of prejudice these where African Americans so if anything they probably live around mostly white people and therefore most of their friends are going to be white. And the question wasn't which one's skin colour do you not like/think is ugly. It was which one do you relate with more and kids aren't going to be thinking logically lets be real if most of their friends are white then they'll obviously say the white doll. There where also various things like the kid who seemed confident with his answers at first but changed his answers half way through doesn't that show that by asking these questions your just making them more uncomfortable or the whole thing is fake. The whole set up is cruel and biased.
Shut up people have it so good now just he thankful fir what we have in todays age like it was way worse before racism aint even a bug big deal now
I love people here pretending white people are not indeed better looking than blacks. This isn't even controversial outside west
I just want to give all of them a big hug
This is actually really sad!

So potato's arent😢😢😢
evelinat92 yh, it really is upsetting seeing young children engraved with this thought of whose good and bad based on appearance
😢You can see sadness and uncomfortability in so many of these kids.
This really broke my heart seeing them pick the white doll and saying that the black doll is ugly 😢😢😢
People who think everyone is beautiful👍🏻👍🏼👍🏽👍🏾👍🏿

I did this test in high school with the daycare kids, aged 2-4, pretty positive results as most of the little kids said both dolls were good and not bad, one kid who was only three said “their babies they can’t be bad”
😆Nice lie you told there fella!

‘HiTLeR’...
I don’t think the child has a view of Eugenics and genetic superiority/inferiority racial narratives...
I think the child likes blue eyes or is subject to cultural, social preferences. People tend to be attracted to demographics they grow up with. They are in Italy.
@@friendbud9622 Omg lol
This is heartwrenching!
It’s funny how none of the kids said “neither” or “both” I wonder what it’ll be like if they were Barbie dolls instead of baby dolls, since Barbie’s are always beautiful and never look “bad”
It was so sad to watch the kids point at the doll that looks like them almost as if to say that they think they are ugly 😢
Safa Kaduji lolllllll
Billy C how is that funny
They are Italian -_-

"This one is looking at me funny" seriously comes from repeated bullying. I'm the only asian in my neighbourhood and i would get racial slurs and stares all the time. There was a period of time where i developed severe social anxiety and was convinced that everyone walking past or in public transport was looking at me funny and judging me. I really feel for that girl, she is so young to be going through that
It's a social experiment to show hwo rasistam effects kids the young leave me alone

Why are we even telling them to choose? Choosing itself is the first step of racism..
White or black, we are still humans. Racist doesn't mean that it's only for black people..

@@ando3024 it is true, I've seen it with kids many times
@@ando3024 it's true, and not a jew
@@ando3024 it is true because i experienced it, when i was in kindergarten everyone would fight for having the white doll and forget about the black one

I could tell they were really uncomfertable and they didnt want to do this💔
I could see the pain in their eyes
Yes that what I was thinking about for a little and a shy kid that they are not used to do things that they never did Or they just shy because they are being recorded
As a white girl...i have to say that white children are soooo cute...
Just like black children ❤❤❤
We are all human...
There's good and bad in every race...
Please don't judge anyone for being black or white!
Its really sad how their smiles slowly fade away
okay this is what we should do black parents. buy a black doll for your daughter. teach her to love herself and appreciate her dark skin and curly Afro hair. cos black is beautiful ❤
Yes black is beautiful, but how about buying your kid a black doll, AND a white doll? That'll teach them that we are equal. We should also teach our kids that they are amazing, no matter what skin color, but tell them there is always room for improvement.

Right✊🏽
Here in Australia I see some dolls and mannequins in dark color but their face still look Caucasians like huge eyes and slim tall nose and I always say this is wrong. If you change the color, change the face as well

@Blackwolf MGTOW it breaks my heart because these are small children who think THEY are bad Because of their skin color. They aren't proud of who they are.
How can you ask why it breaks my heart?
