Race & Privilege: A Social Experiment | Regardless Of Race | CNA Insider


We say the words, “Regardless of race, language or religion.” But majority privilege may be more real in Singapore‬ than some would like to think. Watch what happens in this experiment – and how participants react.

  1. Well I'm happy for people who think these question weren't racist. I consider at least 9 out of 10 as indicators of racism.
    I've experienced all of them in real life, and thats all symptoms of it. Whoever sees that as indicators of being minority, have been quite priviledged their whole life, congrats to you

  2. Singapore is an extremely racist country. They worship whites esp blonds, but really look down on south asians. It is disgusting. People always moan about the UK ad USA being racist, but they are the most accepting countries in the world esp the UK.

  3. Up until 1930, Mexicans and *'latins" were ""white" by the US, until some hispano people having language issues (as a language barrier) loudly voiced their need to be called "hispanos" so that people would know they "spoke Spanish" , in other words " I need a translator/ pls help" ..Fact. It really is " all in tbe mind."

  4. I am a completely ignorant person. I am privileged because of my race and social background. I have met people that just do not appreciate how significant my privilege is and I feel I should marginalise them just for them to realise how much power I have over there tech devices. Am I wrong for this?
    If the person I’m marginalising is a different race and cultural background is that bad?
    Do factors such as majority race and minority race also make me look good?
    If not that what about factors of wealth rich or poor?
    What about custodian factors after this and of course we consider ages that are different?

  5. Most of us ugly poor Filipinos has no priveledge in our own country. The inequality of the popr and the rich is evident, sadly to say only the rich has this so-called priveledges

  6. This is a real thing
    We can’t blame any individual for this problem. It’s in my opinion all people problem that we all has to resolve and seriously work on ourselves to fix.
    It’s not necessary a white or black, or Indian, or Asian, or European issue or even in today’s world directly responsibility. We all plays a part of this issue regardless if we agree or not.
    We all need to stop to observe our own doing in racism.
    It’s a real problem that we all has to work on to eradicate.
    Stop hating each other as it’s senseless.

  7. At least SG can do this ..anyone who does this in MY might end up in jail <.< This isn't about a specific race though – it's about majority race. It's the opposite in Malaysia obviously – Malays get privilege from education, to job opportunities, to govt acceptance of application for wtv, to bank applications, to house loans!!

  8. This reminds me of an illistration that was done in a prison to show the men that regardless of their race, they all had a very tragic past.
    I did 19 years of prison ministry, and that was the most impactful exercise I'd ever seen.
    ~I used to be a homeless suicidal drug addicted murdering gay prostitute that was kidnapped for sx trafficking, so from age 6-50, I had 4 multiple personality disorders, I lived in the ghetto with Gangs contantly killing eachother.
    On 8/10/2017 Jesus completely healed my mind, body, soul and spitit in just 1 day. I found out it only takes 1 Day to LIsten to the NT Bible. The Truth broke every chain! Since then I live a very quite life, content and blessed, bec all I do in my free time, is I've read my Bible from cover to cover every single month for the last 6 years. The SHU would be affective if they could all listen to the NT Bible 24/7.
    I no longer want anything that the world has to offer. After I bought a house, I went on a mission trip in Brazil, and all I wanted to do was move there with only a backpack full of survival gear. Simply catch a fish, puck fruits and vegitables that grow wild, bathe in the river, and read and sleep in a hammock, and have a tarp for when it rains.. Sounds like Paradise 🎉
    Only Love & The TRUTH can set us free. Once I LET Jesus heal me, it's now like I'm telling someone else's story, because All I know now is Love joy peace patients kindness goodness faithfulness gentleness and self control, Gal 6:22.
    Only Jesus can bring us from the end of the line which is where I was… to the very front. Once we stop looking at our past mistakes, regrets, and various lack, we can walk in confidence with our heads held high, bec of who we are in Christ. HE chooses the foolish things/people of this world to confound the wise/proud.
    ~ I wish I knew my mother's story before she died, I have been able to forgive her 100% since finding out about her secret past. Hurt people, hurt people.

  9. OK, most of these bullshit questions are a product of population disparity. If you stay in your country of origin, then you will be of the major race. If you choose to immigrate, we that is usually on you.

  10. Meanwhile none of them are fluent in English. If a white person goes to Zimbabwe, or China or Spain, you think they won't be discrimated? People are turning on the country that WELCOMED them and then calling it racist. It's nonsense and low intelligence..I'm from Canada, most homeless people are white, and I myself being white have been falsely arrested and assaulted by white officers. And struggling my entire life, so please contact me about how to locate my privileges because I have had $0 of savings in the bank most of my life and still counting.

  11. Why don't you do this same experience with people from each of those country that they or their parents are from .and use people from white and other ethnic groups not from their country.This is propaganda B.S. from the elite that don't give a crap about anybody. trying to divide people for their benefit ,not these people.

  12. Im a blonde, culturally muslim Balkan- South Slav, life wasnt easy for me. Stop generalizing white people, just stop. White doesnt mean English or German, it also means Albanian, Croatian, Bosniak, Serb, Ukrainian, Polish etc

  13. Beautiful way of knowing we’re you stand in the community you leave😊 I’ve been discriminated by my own race because I speak with an accent my mother’s tongue ( Romanian 🇷🇴) but, living in 🇬🇧 Uk and have an accent speaking English I’m often asked were I come from… I don’t know what to answer… I don’t belong anywhere ☹️😕😩

  14. Remember when teachers would threaten us by saying xyz is a privledge not a right and can be taken away? To have privileges means you have earned something extra that isn't necessary, or given an honor. The things that are discussed today as privledges are not privileges at all. They are rights. Humans should have access to education, jobs, housing, etc. If a group of people are not receiving these or not benefiting from them than we should be asking why? And how can we solve that problem? Not let's shame the people who already do have those rights.
