A popular experiment floating around on social media is an experiment in which young children are exposed to two dolls. They're prompted with questions such as: "Which doll is the nicer one?" or "Which doll is the bad doll?". Children respond the way that the general population would expect them too, always identifying the darker doll as the bad one and the lighter one as the good one. Obviously the experiment is designed to persuade the population that either children are innately racist or the surrounding influences have distinguished stereotypes in two races. However we see that children are driven by words such as "bad" and good" to direct them to a choice. Therefore we are guided to conclude that children are influenced negatively to approach conclusions that steer them toward the decisions that are expected by the general population.
However in The Help Mae Mobley has no sense of racial discrimination. Her entire basis of of differentiation between people is on her own and that of the influence of Aibileen. From both the experiment and the novel itself, one could draw the conclusion that children are born with no sense of racial discrimination, but the influence that surrounds them on a day-to-day basis is the factor that determines their sense of racial discrimination and differentiation between races.
