True Colors

In the movie True Colors it was a documentary about two men one white and one black who were doing an experiment in St Louis Missouri in 1991. The two moved into a motel in St Louis and were getting prepared to do the experiment. The experiment was to see how people react to a white person and a black person in different situations.

He also got screwed on the cost of the same car and also on had a higher down payment and interest rate. After this experiment the group went to go talk to the car lot staff and asked them why the two got different deals and why they didn’t get service as quick as each other. The staff did not want to answer the questions and walked off.

These two also locked their keys in their car in a parking lot and were acting as if they were trying to unlock it and many people came to John trying to help him and give him suggestions of what to do and how to open it, But Glenn on
