A Teen and a Trolley Reveal Society’s Dark Side” suggest about Jesús Colón’s doubts in “Little Things are Big”?

Respuesta :

The experiment suggests that Jesús Colón might be  correct in worrying that the white woman would perceive him as a  threat.

Explanation:

A teenager re-imagines a famous  psychology experiment to reveal  biases against people who have been  traditionally marginalized by society.

We can work to make society more  fair and equal when we understand and and learn from our hidden biases.

The Puerto Rican speaker promises  himself that he will help those in  need, even if he fears their prejudice.

We can help end the cycle of prejudice  by doing what we know is right, even  if it’s more difficult or dangerous than  doing nothing.

As the experiment in “A Teen  and a Trolley Reveal Society’s Dark Side” shows, people who are from  marginalized groups experience a significant amount of biased  treatment, and he was concerned that she would also be biased.

Ultimately, these biases caused Jesús Colón to act in a cowardly way that

made him feel like he “failed” the woman, her children and himself.

Answer:

Answer:

(C)  Biases affect how people value others, but awareness can help reduce unequal treatment.

Explanation:

The main point discussed in the narrative is an experiment called "the trolley problem" which, ultimately, aims to discover the hidden biases of people; where, in Tiffany's experiment, these people are represented by her 300 research participants. Though her findings seem to support that people value another person's lives differently, based on attractiveness, wealth, as well as disability; she concluded that being aware of these biases help with understanding where they are coming from and creating a more equal society by preventing it from happening.
