00:00:00.000 What if I told you that right now you are witnessing a hate crime?
00:00:04.420 You might even be committing the same offense yourself.
00:00:07.620 According to results from a controversial new experiment,
00:00:10.780 millions of people are guilty of perpetuating a racist history
00:00:13.640 that dates back over 100 years.
00:00:16.780 What crime are we all so carelessly committing?
00:00:20.840 Sitting indoors.
00:00:21.820 In the summer of 2023, an online influencer named Mizzy
00:00:31.160 captured the world's attention by walking into strangers' homes without an invitation.
00:00:40.680 These events inspired the work of this man.
00:00:44.200 Dr. Scott Miller-Perlman works as an assistant to a research fellow
00:00:47.440 at the People's Institute of Social Studies.
00:00:49.240 When you analyze the totality of the consecutive and consistent racial terrorism
00:00:54.660 that the average person of color has to endure,
00:00:57.360 it is a miracle any of them are still breathing.
00:01:00.200 So you're saying that just sitting in this room, you and I,
00:01:04.760 a couple of camera guys, we're being racist?
00:01:08.520 Without a doubt.
00:01:09.960 Think of all of those white-only signs that you've seen in photos from the civil rights era.
00:01:14.960 White people have always placed a premium on indoor space 1.00
00:01:18.060 and refused to share it with blacks until they were forced to. 0.96
00:01:21.480 The problem, he explains, goes back to the founding fathers.
00:01:24.740 From the moment the first white person set foot in this country, 0.51
00:01:28.120 there was only one rule that applied to every home in the colony.
00:01:31.740 No minorities allowed. 1.00
00:01:35.060 Now, how would you respond to your critics who say,
00:01:38.140 you can't call the basic concept of shelter racist?
00:01:43.560 When that basic concept, as you call it,
00:01:47.380 is weaponized against an entire community,
00:01:51.420 then yeah, you can call it racist.
00:01:55.240 In his new book, Blinded by the White,
00:01:57.860 Dr. Miller-Perlman lays out the background for his theory
00:02:00.640 and showed us how he's fighting to end the legacy of racism in his own home.
00:02:05.020 The idea of locking your doors is in and of itself white supremacy.
00:02:11.280 It's a classic Klan fairy tale that we all need to lock our doors to feel protected. 0.96
00:02:16.840 But every time you slide that deadbolt across your threshold,
00:02:21.580 you are harming a minority.
00:02:24.300 During our interview, we found he does in fact practice what he preaches.
00:02:27.980 Who was that?
00:02:33.900 I don't know.
00:02:35.300 And that wasn't the last time.
00:02:41.480 During our visit, more than 23 perpetually invited visitors, as he calls them,
00:02:46.700 entered his home.
00:02:48.020 So you're saying that any person of color at any time
00:02:51.100 can come into your house for any reason?
00:02:54.800 That's right.
00:02:55.440 As shocking as that was,
00:02:57.940 nothing could have prepared me for the biggest claim to come out of his research.
00:03:02.160 Dr. Miller-Perlman conducted a social experiment involving students at a university.
00:03:06.320 We took an average white student and told them to make sure that no one used this door 0.99
00:03:10.600 until we said it was okay. 0.94
00:03:12.820 If you'll notice, the only people being stopped are black. 0.99
00:03:16.860 The only people trying to get in are black. 0.95
00:03:20.080 We conducted this experiment over the course of a week with dozens of volunteers. 0.95
00:03:24.740 No matter the age, sex, height, or weight of the volunteer,
00:03:29.440 the only people that were being denied entry indoors were black.
00:03:35.240 How many white people tried to go in?
00:03:38.000 Well, that data fell outside the focus of this particular experiment.
00:03:42.420 We decided to try our own experiment to see if we could get the same results.
00:03:47.340 Our volunteer fit the criteria of the original experiment.
00:03:50.240 A 25-year-old man, average height and weight, and white.
00:03:53.980 We also gave him the same instructions.
00:03:56.060 Do not let anyone use the door until we tell you otherwise.
00:03:59.760 For the first hour, we didn't see anyone try to go in.
00:04:02.260 Or many people pass by at all.
00:04:04.360 After a while, we did notice this.
00:04:06.740 It was after this incident our producers realized we were conducting our experiment at a Chick-fil-A.
00:04:13.680 Since it was Sunday, we decided to pack it in and present our results to Dr. Miller-Perlman for review.
00:04:19.420 Right here. You can see it for yourself.
00:04:21.900 The presence of a white authority figure was enough to trigger centuries of oppression. 0.79
00:04:26.500 Do you think other conditions, aside from racism, could have accounted for the results of our experiment?
00:04:32.380 You'll have to be more specific.
00:04:33.480 If I told you we did it at a Chick-fil-A?
00:04:38.040 I don't see how that could affect the outcome, no.
00:04:40.360 Then it was on a Sunday?
00:04:41.400 No.
00:04:42.540 Chick-fil-A is closed on Sunday.
00:04:44.560 God rest on Sunday. Racism doesn't.
00:04:48.460 So you're saying that even if a business is closed, it's still racism if they don't let a black person in? 0.95
00:04:55.300 Bigots will always hide behind convenient excuses.
00:04:59.280 In 1823, it was the Bible.
00:05:01.040 In 1923, Jim Crow.
00:05:03.960 And in 2023, they hide behind a sign that says, closed.
00:05:10.960 Since our interview, Dr. Miller-Perlman has developed an online course aimed at helping white people avoid making uncomfortable mistakes when interacting with black people.
00:05:20.040 The online course, Stop Communicating All Microaggressions, is set to launch this fall.
00:05:24.760 And I can read also the
00:05:35.460 phishing film in 1923.
