Instructions
The cubs or scouts stand in line and they represent people from different walks of life with different Privileges, such as black, disabled, women, poor, refugee, homeless etc. They are given this role through drawing a piece of paper from a pile.
The leader asks questions such as: you can buy what you want without worrying about money. Or you have the right to vote, or you can go anywhere you want, or you have equal pay as anyone in your position, or you are not considered dangerous just because of your skin colour. You can't apply for a job because you don't have an address (homeless)
The ones who fall behind see how it is unfair and the young persons understand what social justice means and promise not to discriminate.
