Does the Stanford Prison Experiment reflect in any way what we do to each other in more mundane settings? Does privileged status (based on race, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, body size, religion) foster "guards" and "prisoners"? Have you ever been a "guard"? A "prisoner"? Both? In your view, what connections are there between the behaviors exhibited in the experiment and bullying? Are there ways to get back a stronger sense of individual identity in the face of authority, and what do we potentially give up by being truer to ourselves? What do we gain?
