Interesting read, sir! However, I wish you would talk more about the truth behind the robbers cave experiment. The study was highly funded due to the aftermath of the second world war, and there was a race to find out what it was that caused people to turn on each other like in the Holocaust. Sherif’s funds to prove his point were running out and so Sherif and his team purposefully interfered with and manipulated the study to yield the results they desired. The study was straight up dubious.
Absolutely! I have been considering covering this topic myself, particularly because it has always been presented in our social psychology paper without any critical analysis. I believe that more students should have access to the truth behind landmark studies like these.
This was so intresting that I want to read the other researcher's personal background as well. Also, the agenda behind Sherif's conflict resolution tactics on introducing a common goal is very much in line with promoting global citizenship to reduce political differences to fight against a unified goal of the problems faced on global levels like poverty, climate change, etc.
As a kid I was never much into history and politics but your articles and the way you explain history and politics through a lense of psychology make me want to keep reading more 😩🤌

Think that deserves a whole new story for itself. Will cover it too :)

There's always a story behind every psychologist

That's the highest compliment I can get. Thank you so much!
At first, i thought Sherif was American. But then later on Youtube i found out he was not. It's rascist how psychologists of minority were treated.
Well put!
Now today I can feel the dark reality of politics and racism in Psychology.
