The Passage Project: Nina Jablonski on the Nature of Skin

Nina Jablonski on the Nature of Skin

I was recently referred to an insightful TED Talk presentation by anthropologist Nina Jablonski discussing the science behind skin color. Filmed earlier this year, it's a true celebration of our diversity and what makes us all beautiful.

Her book Skin: A Natural History will definitely be on my bookshelf any day now.

Photographs From Passage Project

THE PASSAGE PROJECT is a book and documentary theater piece combining text, video, and music; a meditation on the diverse voices that exist within Africa and the diaspora. These stories reveal how geographic location, culture, socioeconomic status and language directly shape identity. Ultimately, THE PASSAGE PROJECT serves as an exploration into human nature that people of all cultures can relate to by transcending traditional ideas of race and identity. The photographs help put the stories into context by illustrating each storyteller’s experience. (All photographs by Trina Michelle Robinson)
