While standing at a crosswalk, a young man in a passing
car leaned out and said "Watch out grandma!" I
knew the grandma remark was because of my white hair. It
made me angry and I had no recourse. This is my response.
I developed a survey based
on hair color. Six hundred paper copies were distributed
through a network of friends and colleagues from Seattle
to Greece. Four hundred and eleven were completed. All participants
saw only one image in a controlled setting while completing
the survey. |
