The UIC Centers for Diversity presents

WHAT ARE YOU? THE CHANGING FACE OF AMERICA

Renowned artist Kip Fulbeck explores issues of mixed race identity in this
multimedia presentation on icons of race and sex in the United States, a
country that ignores multiraciality. Using his own multiracial background as
a springboard for his multimedia presentation, Fulbeck confronts icons of
race and sex in the U.S., inspiring audiences to explore how our own ethnic
stereotypes and opinions on cultural identity are formed, leading one to
honestly consider, Who Am I?
