Jane Elliott has been teaching her groundbreaking anti-racist group social exercise “Blue Eyes, Brown Eyes” for over 36 years, working to make people more empathetic and sensitive to the problem of racism, prejudice, and privilege. Elliott started the exercise in her third-grade classroom immediately after the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. recognizing that continuous education, introspection, and commitment to this issue should be taught at an early age.
Roland S. Martin is an award-winning journalist who has always maintained a clear sense of his calling and delivered a critical analysis of the news and politics from an explicitly African American perspective. The host of his own news show on BET, Martin also serves as senior analyst for the Tom Joyner Morning Show. Martin is the author of three books, including The First: President Barack Obama’s Road to the White House.
