Question

Who conducted the doll experiment, and how did this experiment contribute to the civil rights movement in the United States?

Answer 1

Answer:

The doll experiment was conducted by Kenneth and Mamie Clark. Their experiment suggested that, due to segregation, African American children preferred white dolls, attributed more positive characteristics to white dolls, and felt inferior. This experiment played an important role in the desegregation of American schools and was even cited in the landmark US Supreme Court case Brown v. Board of Education, which was an important event in the civil rights movement.
