possibly the ones who got the most out of this exercise were the *non-white* kids. they got to see how the system works, how the game is played, etc.
maybe the existence of privilege is so hard to accept for members of the privileged group because they've got to accept that they *are part of* the system. well, it took me a while to get it, too. and i think i'll need to rewatch this on a regular basis.

sorry for the late reply, you put out so many thinky thoughts. 'm not feeling overly write-ish atm.
my opinion is more or less along the lines of 'equality through unequal treatment'. if you have a group that's put at a disadvantage by the existing system, the fastest way to cancel out that disadvantage is to treat them differently than the others. yes, that means forming groups along exterior differences.
i don't even believe the hen/egg thing relates to this. 'equality' does *not* mean treating everyone the same, that shouldn't even be the goal here. the goal should be equality as in providing everyone with more or less the same opportunities.
i'm not really sure whether having everyone in the same group is better than having two groups. i like your idea but *if* you keep everyone in the one group i think there should be changes in the way of teaching because otherwise, you're making the difference just as obvious, if not more so.
...and now i see you addressed that, too. so, to clarify: as long as we're keeping the one-teacher-per-classroom structure, i think separate classes work better. if you've got more than one teacher per group, *everyone* will benefit, i think. =)

not exactly sure what you're arguing for here. yes, it's not surprising. and you know what? it's not even surprising that it's not surprising. doesn't mean i have to go along with it.
