Trey’s Table Episode 322: Why We Still Pick the White Dolls



✨ Episode 322: The Clarks’ Doll Test & the Legacy of Internalized Racism ✨

In the 1940s, psychologists Drs. Kenneth and Mamie Clark conducted a groundbreaking experiment: Black children were asked to choose between Black and white dolls. The results were heartbreaking—most children preferred the white doll, calling it “nice” and “good,” while rejecting the Black doll as “bad” . This revealed the brutal psychological toll of segregation and white supremacy on Black self-perception.

Decades later, studies—including modern recreations—show similar biases persist . On *Trey’s Table*, we dive into:
- **How systemic racism shapes identity** from childhood .
- **The Clarks’ role in *Brown v. Board***—and why their findings remain urgent .
- **Internalized racism in Black & Asian communities**—how stereotypes endure and how we resist .

The doll test isn’t just history—it’s a mirror. Tune in to explore how we confront its legacy today. 🎧 **Link in bio!**
