Congrats Carmen

Hello Carmen. I was really curious to hear the rest of the story you were trying to tell on News and Notes. I got the impression that you had didn’t finished before the show had ended. Did the young lady who took the painting as an experiment get a chance to have someone else of a different ethnicity try to do the same thing later? Were the teachers ever informed of this experiment that showed how they were treating people differently based on their perceptions of the student’s ethnicity?

Hey Eccentric1 and merq - in retrospect I probably shouldn’t have tried to rush that story in the last 10 seconds of the interview.
If you want to hear the original, check out the last third of episode 18 of Addicted to Race, in which Jen and I interviewed Alice Sandosharaj. The story was hers - and she’ll do it justice.
