Whenever I’m asked about the importance of representation, or the issues surrounding colourism, I often refer to African American psychologists Kenneth and Mamie Clark’s Doll Test conducted in the 1940’s. You want to get an honest reflection of this world? Ask a small human. There’s little under the sun more honest than a child’s observation. When asked questions re: which one is the doll they would play with, which one is the nice doll, which one looks bad, which one has the nicer color, then ‘which one looks like you?’, it’s just heart wrenching.
During the Civil Rights Movement, Kenneth and Mamie founded the Northside Center for Child Development in Harlem and the organization Harlem Youth Opportunities Unlimited, though are most known for their experiments using dolls to study children's learned attitudes about race. The Clarks testified as expert witnesses in Briggs v. Elliott (1952), one of five cases combined into Brown v. Board of Education (1954). The Clarks' work contributed to the ruling of the U.S. Supreme Court in which it determined that de jure racial segregation in public education was unconstitutional. Chief Justice Earl Warren wrote in the Brown v. Board of Education opinion, "To separate them from others of similar age and qualifications solely because of their race generates a feeling of inferiority as to their status in the community that may affect their hearts and minds in a way unlikely to ever be undone.” Thank you Kenneth and Mamie, and thank you Gordon for your huge contributions to making this world a little bit wiser. #thedolltest #segregation #bethechange #representationmatters #reclaimthenarrative #gordonparks KayX ▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️
