Something we could use

This is something I think we could use now, but I don’t have the expertise to make it happen. Maybe you do.

It’s a program or app that first asks you to put in a head portrait. Then if you have Caucasian skin, the program gives you African-American skin. If you have African-American skin, it gives you Caucasian skin.

Then a set of questions appear for contemplation. For example:

In your new skin:
What does “privilege” means to you?
What is it like to walk the streets of your neighborhood?
What about the future for your children?
Do you want your old skin back?
