One of FRONTLINE's most requested programs is third-grade teacher Jane Elliott's lesson on discrimination. The day after Martin Luther King, Jr. (1929 -1968) was killed, Jane Elliott, a teacher in a small, all-white Iowa town, divided her third-grade class into blue-eyed and brown-eyed groups and gave them a daring lesson in discrimination. This is the story of that lesson, its lasting impact on the children, and its enduring power 30 years later.
