Race Experiments Frank DiMaria Post #22


The post on the What Would You do experiments was very hard to get through. I was so saddened, even though it was an experiment, to see the people go through being subjected to such racism and not be helped. It was very interesting though that the majority of people who helped were of color. I wonder if there is a correlation from past experiences to how people react. I don’t blame most people for not helping, as many people have never been so closely exposed to racism. If someone never saw racism that explicitly close up it would be a hard thing to address. What’s even sadder to me though is that this really does happen. I am glad that I watched the video though. It really did make me think about how real this problem is and what I can do if I am ever in the situation to help someone.
