Nina Jablonski breaks the illusion of skin color
Nina Jablonski says that differing skin colors are simply our bodies' adaptation to varied climates and levels of UV exposure. Charles Darwin disagreed with this theory, but she explains, that's because he did not have access to NASA. -->
In anticipation of the upcoming exhibit, RACE: Are We So Different? January of 2010,the Missouri History Museum, The St. Louis Beacon and KETC Channel 9 have partnered to create a yearlong series of events, in-depth articles and video pieces that focus on issues of race and discrimination in our region. This is an ongoing regional conversation, and this website is a place for any organization participating in that conversation to share its events, content and general information. It's also a forum to discuss articles and issues about race that are not directly tied to any specific partner or the region.
