How Might Virtual Reality Address the Problem of Global Racism?


"W": A real credit to Stanford and Columbia…well, maybe not.

N.S.: The entire history of fighting "racism" and striving for "integration," "equal opportunity," and "diversity" from Franz Boas onward, has been a history of deceiving whites.

"The Problem of Global Racism" is the opposite of what this mook/mope is talking about. It is the problem of worldwide white genocide.

In a new interview with CMRubinWorld, Stanford University's Jeremy Bailenson says immersive VR experiences increase empathy and pro-social behavior in users compared to other media.


NEW YORK (PRWEB) JUNE 18, 2019

1,000 Cut Journey was premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival as a VR project that highlights the social realities of racism. In this VR project, the viewer becomes Michael Sterling, a black man, encountering racism as a young child, adolescent, and young adult. In a new interview with C.M. Rubin, Founder of CMRubinWorld, Jeremy Bailenson, the film's co-producer, says, "In creating virtual experiences we can increase empathy for others, encourage helping behaviors, improve communication strategies, and enhance education."

1,000 Cut Journey is a collaboration between the Virtual Human Interaction Lab at Stanford University and the Cogburn Research Group at Columbia University, headed by Dr. Courtney Cogburn, who studies racism. Bailenson believes the key to success in changing behavior is ensuring the user gets an immersive virtual experience. "We feel that these types of experiences are important to focus on as VR permeates society. Never before in history could we allow anyone to instantly step into the shoes of someone else."

    FOX Hannity/Lawrence Jones lovefest tonight.
    "You are my friend Lawrence,a very good friend,very talented,blah blah.There's a lot of racism on the left and I hate it yada yada yada.
    Whether Hannity is trying to con blacks or turn whites into lovers of all the blacks on FOX--either way--his remarks tonight reinforce my opinion that FOX is headed down the path toward MSNBC.The Lawrence Jones gusher by Hannity reminded me of last year,when Candace Owens was shoved down our pallets on a daily basis--3 or more times a day.Now Hannity has a new black adoptee and you can bet Lawrence Jones will be on-air so much,from now on,that you'll think he has something on Rupert Murdoch.
    We need a new conservative network,since we don't have ONE anymore.
