Each gathers light and then transforms that light into a...

The teacher, Jane Elliot, was very courageous for trying to have the kids go through something as bold as this in their time. She did the experiment in the 1960’s in Iowa which was a rough time for minorities, especially with the Civil Rights Movement.
