Student Voices: In a student developed display, youth perspectives on race, identity and ethnicity are expressed through their own words, pictures, and objects.

Census t-shirts: This photo from the RACE exhibit features college students demonstrating how racial categories have changed throughout American history. Each student is wearing a t-shirt imprinted with racial categories they would have been assigned in three different censuses.

Child & Guardian: A resource center at the heart of the exhibit welcomes small children with books, games and other activities.

Compelling Video: Videos throughout the exhibit present personal stories and challenge visitors to consider new perspectives on race.

Family Participation: Together, a family discovers that assumptions can be misleading as they listen to voices and try to match them with pictures of the speakers.

Piles of Cash: Stacks of money serve as powerful emblems of the economic inequity found in the United States. Throughout RACE, components like this draw visitors into conversations that connect their personal experiences with ideas encountered in the exhibition.

Self Identification: "What are you?" asks artist Kip in his photographic installation, The Hapa Project. As they encounter a multiplicity of answers, visitors reflect on the sharp contrast between common conceptions of race and the fluidity of personal identity.

"Why do people come in so many colors?" Many visitors come to the exhibit with common questions like these. Here they learn about recent scientific theory that may explain the variation in human skin color found around the globe.
