..I wonder if you can see the whole experiment because this seems like quite a limited example...they didn't just do these few..?...

If the guy had been a bit bigger and more threatening looking less folk would have spoke up. Because he looked like Mark from BB14 it was easy

..I also think the 'targets' they spoke up for were 'non threatening'..it was interesting through it and thinking..well, he's not showing prejudice to an adult male..then he did with the last one but it was a guy with two small children/pushing a buggy..but it would have been interesting if he hadn't had the children and had been dressed differently...they surely couldn't have just done this with those few, it would have been interesting to see the entire experiment...

I like the way the Canadians deal with it if you go to 2.55

I've never seen anyone abuse muslims, or blacks, or jews, or gays, or any minority.

I've never actually witnessed any kind of violent discrimination.


I know that must be hard to believe when you Brits hear constantly how racist America is, but i've never seen anything racist or islamophobic in person. have you?

I Suppose i won't know until i am in that situation. I'd like to think i'd do the right thing though.

I'd like to know if anyone here has ever witnessed violent discrimination against a minority? and did you do anything to defend them?

I don't like "experiments" like this, they're provocative and meaningless. It's like they're trying to prove people are bigots when actually, the vast majority of people are pretty decent. If they want to impress me with how liberal and decent people are, do an experiment like this in Saudi, have a man beat a woman in the street and see how many people step in to help her.
