Do you know who this is?



 



Her name is Jane Elliott, and she is a true hero!



In 1968, Jane was a 3rd grade teacher who came up with a novel way to teach her students what discrimination feels like in the days following the death of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.



Her lesson was captured in the 1970 documentary, "The Eye of the Storm".
