The college is also hosting multiple campus-wide events in conjunction with the exhibitions between September 9 and September 30.  The public is invited to the exhibitions as well as the additional events.  Admission is free.

亚洲色吧淗ateful Things亚洲色吧� is a traveling sample from Ferris State University亚洲色吧檚 Jim Crow Museum of Racist Memorabilia and features a collection of racist objects that trace the history of the stereotyping of African Americans. The exhibition contributes to and is in dialog with the scholarly examination of historical and contemporary expressions of racism and visual culture. It also seeks to promote racial understanding and healing.

The exhibit was created by David Pilgrim, who is a professor of sociology, vice president of diversity and inclusion and museum curator at Ferris State University; and Carrie Stermer, who is director of Ferris State University亚洲色吧檚 Fine Art Gallery.

The collection began by Pilgrim purchasing and disposing of racially insulting items wherever he found them.  He began collecting the items when he recognized their historical significance.  He views the collection of images and artifacts not as a traditional museum, but as a learning and teaching laboratory, where the images of intolerance are used to teach tolerance.

亚洲色吧淚 have goal to create a room that when people come into the room, it changes the way they talk about race,亚洲色吧� Pilgrim said.

亚洲色吧淩esilience亚洲色吧� was curated by Dr. Heidi Kraus and features world-renowned contemporary African-American artists from the Kruizenga Art Museum and Chicago亚洲色吧檚 Monique Meloche Gallery, including Faith Ringgold, Sanford Biggers and Lorna Simpson.
