Barry SonnenfeldI use this scene to explain implicit bias to people. his first instinct is to assume the aliens are violent and the girl is innocent, but instead of acting on those assumptions he takes time to recognize his bias, look at the situation again, and then act. I watched this with my dad when I was fairly young, and I remember thinking that this was why he got chosen; before he even really knew what was going on, he didn’t assume that aliens were dangerous monsters.1997. This was in 1997. Seriously, why hasn’t every police department in America been doing this test, and if a potential recruit shoots the Black teenager with the pack of Skittles, that motherfucker gets kicked to the curb? (I know why.) That part ^Im not exaggerating. When you say Men in black,I think of this scene. As a child I just found it funny. Now I see all of this that was mentioned above. -- source link
