This film is a classic. It resonates Johnson's debate in which it he postulates whether prejudice is nature or nurture. It is interesting how easily influenced humans can be, especially when they are given power over others. Even more so, when that power has not been rightfully earned.
Wow, I don't have the words to express how salient this experiment is. I'm going to try to show this video to my son and see how he feels.
