RACE: Are We So Different?

To help promote more complex and nuanced understandings of race and human variation, the AAA developed and currently manages a public education program titled “RACE: Are We So Different?” The program includes a traveling museum exhibit, an interactive website, and educational materials. “RACE: Are We So Different?” looks at race in the United States through history, science and lived experience. The program explains how human variation differs from race, when and why the idea of race was invented, and how race and racism affect everyday life.
