description: "Jane Elliott is an American diversity educator. As a schoolteacher, Elliott became known for the \"Blue Eyes/Brown Eyes\" exercise she created to teach students about the effects of discrimination and racial stereotyping. She first conducted the exercise with her third-grade class on April 5, 1968, the day after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. The local newspaper's publication of compositions that the children had written about the experience led to much broader media interest in it."
