Brown Eyes Blue Eyes

Brown Eyes Blue Eyes, told with lilting rhyme and rhythm, follows two best friends who find out that, due to their eye color, they aren't supposed to be friends anymore. Follow Bobby and Marie as they learn how prejudice feels, as they bully others and are bullied, and as the truth is finally revealed. This story is based on the blue eyes/brown eyes exercise that Jane Elliott used to teach her third grade class about the Civil Rights Movement on the day following the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr.
