A clip of actor Todd Bridges' appearance on Little House on the Prairie is going viral. From the episode, “The Wisdom of Solomon", teacher Miss Beadle asks the class to write an essay about the things they “dislike the most.” Solomon (Bridges) uses this moment to announce to the class that he dislikes "being a n****r."

In a later scene, Solomon explains his answer to Charles Ingalls (Michael Landon) and asks him if he would like to live to be 100. “I’m sure I would," Ingalls says in response to Solomon's question. “It’s not very likely... I guess all of us would like to live to a ripe old age." However, when Solomon asks Ingalls if he would rather be black and live to be 100 or white and live to be 50, the latter chooses to walk out the door. The clip has received a ton of responses on Twitter. Many people brought up how the show was always good for bringing up social issues and incorporating social commentary.

"Would you rather be Black & live to a 100 or white & live to 50?" - 'Solomon' aka Todd Bridges, 1977
"None of ya would change places with me! And I'm rich! That's how good it is to be white!" - Chris Rock, 2008 — Tracee Loran (@traceeloran) May 3, 2020

THIS IS SO TRUE! EVERYONE NEEDS TO HEAR THIS. Nothing has changed. Not a thing. Michael Langdon wasn't afraid to show the truth on TV in this show. Todd Bridges was so moving in this. https://t.co/WYo2nWIDtX

Mind blowing scenes and a devastatingly real question at the end. Kudos to Todd Bridges, and to Michael Landon! https://t.co/5qJypqhhtd
