In the documentary, she said that she conducted the original blue-eyes, brown-eyes experiment to make a positive change. In 2001, she was still trying to make a change. You can contribute to that positive change by watching the documentary. It is quite powerful to watch. At points, you are likely to feel uncomfortable. In the most uncomfortable moments, Elliott reminds the students of violent acts caused by racism or homophobia. Jane Elliot Quotes This is a compelling and spellbinding story set in Renaissance Venice and centered around a great painter who is searching for a new colour to make his mark upon history. There are quite a few words in a synopsis where when I see them I just can't resist reading the book and one of those words is Renaissance, especially when it's set in Italy. So when I found out about The Color Storm by Damian Dibben there was no question. I just had to read it and I'm so glad that I did because I loved it so much and could hardly put the book down. It is rare to come across a book with such an aptly chosen title. The year is 1510 and Damian Dibben takes us to the shimmering city of Venice where a young painter by the name Giorgione (or Zorzo for his friends) straggles to keep his studio afloat. A possibility of a large commission is on the horizon, which would be the most positive news, if not for the fact that the other candidates for the assignment include names like Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci… And also, whoever wins that commission, might be able to lay his hands on a mineral that produces a colour that is said to be the most magnificent of them all, and is likely to obtain an undying fame for whoever should use it… The animation options are in the Functions area.

A rich and rousing tale of art, love, rivalry and obsession in Renaissance Venice' CHLOË ASHBY, AUTHOR OF WET PAINTIt didn’t take long for the children to turn on each other. Kids “on top” would tease the children who were deemed as the inferior group. The kids in the “bottom” group became timider and kept to themselves. Things even got violent at recess. Within a few hours of starting the exercise, Elliott noticed big differences in the children’s behavior and how they treated each other. She noticed that student relationships had changed; even if students were friendly outside of the exercise, they treated each other with arrogance or bossiness once the “roles” were assigned. Damian Dibben is a best-selling British author. His novels have been translated into 27 languages, in over 40 countries. His latest, THE COLOUR STORM, a love story and thriller set in the art world of the renaissance, is published by MichaelJoseph/Penguin in the UK in June 2022 and HarperCollins in the US this September. The two deep tones add depth to the interior, creating a strong, moody statement that works wonderfully well when contrasted with the light timber flooring and chalky walls. Spots of red add vivacity to the room. The story is poetic and tragic, with a great twist. My only gripe would be the slow pacing, there was a lot of build up at the beginning and that could have been shortened and my interest held further. As the water levels rise and the plague creeps ever closer, an increasingly desperate Zorzo isn’t sure whom he can trust. Will Sybille prove to be the key to Zorzo’s success or the reason for his downfall?

In an attempt to win Fugger’s favour, Zorzo agrees to paint a portrait of his wife, Sybille – but as he becomes closer to Sybille, he finds that he has become involved in a conspiracy which could have huge implications for the people of Europe. And then, while Zorzo is still considering his next move, a new threat arrives in Venice…the plague! The writing itself is romantic. It’s a love letter to colours, and I’ve never come across such brilliant descriptions before. It is a feat by the author, truly. Dibben is to storytelling what Zorzo is to painting: a reinforcer of images that are so potent it feels like the viewer is entering another world.
