The Pick Museum of Anthropology and the Center for Black Studies are excited to announce we will be hosting the traveling exhibition Hateful Things from February 2, 2021-April 9, 2021. This exhibition represents nearly 150 years of anti-black/racist material culture and imagery. This powerful exhibit lifts objects from their original purposes to serve as reminders of America’s racist past, and challenges present-day images of racial stereotyping with the aim of stimulating the scholarly examination of historical and contemporary expressions of racism, as well as promoting racial understanding and healing.
Please see the attached PDF for information on utilizing this exhibit in courses.
Questions can be directed to rwilson8@niu.edu.
