Translation of Spanish slides starting at 2:57:
Slide 1: This video was made as part of the campaign: “Racism in Mexico.”
It was an experiment with children, replicating the experiment designed by Kenneth and Mamie Clark in the ’30s in the U.S.
Here we show part of the results that reflect the responses of the majority of the children that were interviewed for this investigation.
The video was produced in a space of trust and the children answered with complete freedom.
Slide 2: Given the complexity of the issue, a workshop on racism was held with the children and their families to create a space for reflection and contention of the emotions that were generated.
The parents and families gave their consent for this video to raise awareness about racism.
Absolute respect is given to the children that participated as these are not an isolated case but a reflection on our society, where racism is transmitted and reproduced culturally.
Slide 3: Finally, we note that we could not get a doll with these features in toy stores in Mexico City.
In fact, a black doll was repainted to a skin tone a little bit lighter and the blue eyes changed to brown eyes.
Slide 4: For a racism-free society.
