Common Lit: "A Teen & a Trolley Reveal Society's Dark Side" by Bethany Brookshire

Curated by ACT

In 2015, a high school senior named Tiffany Sun conducted a social science experiment and presented her results at the Intel Science Talent Search in Washington, D.C. The results of her experiment shed light on an age-old question: are people naturally good or evil? It also offers guided reading, an assessment, and discussion questions.
