Has anyone heard of Jane Elliott, the schoolteacher who, in 1968, did a classroom experiment called "Brown Eyes, Blue Eyes." She separated the class by eye color and then gave different privileges accordingly.

I have heard of that, but I am somewhat skeptical of it. Has anyone else ever tried to recreate it or actually checked her data or notes? I find it hard to believe that the kids could be so easily manipulated or the parents wouildn't have objected.
