Description:
We had a party and invited many people for ice cream and
a movie. Then the people who came were treated
according to their race. Black females were given
first choice on the ice cream and were offered toppings.
They were also put in the front row. Everyone else
had to get what was left and were not given toppings.
Instructions/Things Needed:
Needed:
Icecream
toppings
movie
Best if 3-4 people run it. Some can serve, while
others show the privileged people to their seats and act
as usher during the movie. Tell people they need
to be quiet, even if they're not talking, so that the
people in front can hear the movie.
Other Considerations:
Afterwards, explain what is going on, by now some people
have figured it out. Remember to not tell the
residents it is a privilege program. You can
change anything, what is served, or who and how people
are privileged. Works best if it is not white
males. Try to explain afterwards that there was no
intention of cruelty or hard feelings. Then go
into a discussion. Be open to what people say.
(Disclaimers are always good at the start of the
program, listen, respect, and keep everything said in
this room, respect)
