Meritocracy

I believe in this idea, that if you worked hard enough you can achieve anything. Reason why i believe in this idea is because it has been proven lots of time. But during the film of "A Class Divided" it had a little effect on my idea. Just because the teacher said that Blue eyes were superior than Brown eyes, it changed every little kids mind, Kid with brown eyes acted silly or unresponsive just because this huge idea was dropped on their head, while the blue eye kids just began answering each problem without any hesitation and getting than right. But on the next day when the teacher flipped the table saying that Brown eyes are superior than Blue eyes it changed everything, the blue eyes kids couldn't answer any of the question from yesterday, while the brown eyes did. The whole idea that depending on your position of wealth, race, gender, or anything else can affect on how you do certain task or job.
