    wow this makes so much sense to explain why kids (bipoc, adhd, asd spectrum, etc.) receive inappropriate and incompetent treatment from "expert" authority figures at school which leads to trouble at school and at home which leads to a "vicious spiral" of negative feelings about themselves and anti-social behavior that comes from the hurt they've experienced and feel inside. Excellent video, very enlightening!

      I quite frankly disagree with your opinion and believe that children with special needs often get better care and attention. In fact, some special needs children enjoy this type of treatment, which is widely distributed among family and friends and complete strangers at that. Also, it is unconscious bias that is being talked about so the definition of that is that it is not actively being discriminated against but rather 'unconscious' but it's still there.

    This makes me appreciate my parents a lot more because I went through this a lot in school were teachers would put me in position were they think what I did was bad. I got harassed to soon get in trouble for it. But my parents fought those things because they understand that they were using that biased thought against me. For me I had to give up a lot of things about myself to fit into that stigma that’s been pushed on me for so long, it practically destroyed me. Now 17 I guess I’m part of the ‘woke’ culture movement where being woke and understanding about the world yourself and other people, stuff that was so hidden and less talk about in my community. Now I’m trying to understand the unconscious bias and how it play so viscously against minorities and how it affects people long term. This physiological affect makes me wonder why isn’t this talk about in minority communities, especially considering how this is a form of racial biased. I’m glad to see videos like these to spread awareness about this form of oppression against minorities...

Surely things can be improve through awareness such as this video. But in the end Boy or girl or any body when you come at your conscious, when you aware about your decisions and actions, Please try to do something good. Because there will be always some one who needs help.

      Actually, I disagree, my husband and I are currently walking through this treatment with our son. He just has an advantage of both parents being willing to stand in the mud with him. To put a name to the issue and call it what it is. Honestly it is more common than you can imagine or may want to imagine. There is no avoiding preconceived notions or stereotypes people may hold. The real conversation is talking about this with all honestly how we all have some form of bias and our need to be self aware of this. While also challenging ourselves on why we believe what we believe and how we may be intentionally harming others and in this case children.

    This is the Pigmalion or Rosenthal effect. Through experiments they demonstrated how we behave according to how we are expected to behave, because we are social beings and want to adapt ourselves to what we are expected to do. So if the teachers or parents expect the child to misbehave, finally the child will. In both directions, possitive or negative. Not anyone should be able to be a teacher, they should have psychological tests and training. Most have so many traumas themselves they can only give shit to their students. Same with parents. But when you are paid to do your job as a teacher you should not allow yourself to pass your own issues to your students. And, one more thing, I am sorry, but after the last statement in this video I can't understand how people there to say the US is the country of opportunities. The country of opportunities for some, like so many other countries. It is not any especial at that point. So why they keep saying it like a tantra

    Every stereotype in the world is exemplified in this video: Kid with either a learning disability or Attention deficit, etc. is not getting what he needs in school and so, we blame the victim. How: simple: kid is not getting the appropriate education he should be, they force him to fit the curriculum when it should be that the curriculum fits him. Then, of course, he becomes a juvenile delinquent and grows up to be a gang member. And why, "Because he's African American or Hispanic" at 3 X the rate of the white kid. So, what's the white kid's excuse? The problem in this scenario is not Hispanic or Black or from Mars. The problem is the kid is in an inappropriate learning environment.

    This video hasn't shown me any good example of discrimination. They literally say the kid is unprepared in school, gets in fights, and misbehaves. If a child is disruptive that takes opportunity away from the other kids to learn and therefore removal and disciplinary action are necessary. It has everything to do with the child's choices, and nothing to do with the child's minority status.

      I think you've missed the point of the video... being that he wasnt being any worse than any other kid. He was being unfairly picked on by teachers at a young age which in turn became a self fulfilling prophecy.... no one believed in him so he stopped trying, and in turn he did become a problem student. The focus here should be on empathy and understanding root causes.

    Notice how they never show what behaviors the kids are getting in trouble for constantly in the video (like shoving someone into a locker)? And the absence of fathers in the homes? Minority communities are plagued by fatherless households the most, and all behavior starts with parenting in the home. A mother will nurture their child, but only a father can reign them in with the proper level of discipline and guidance for life.

Also assuming every mother is the nurturing type and that every father feels it's their job to carry out the discipline/guidance role is a huge bias, no matter is its "hunter-gather", "evolution" or "human nature". Humans defy and have the ability to defy their "rigid" nature. Having expectations for other people who you know nothing about is a bias.
