Skin

An emblematic museum in Paris, the Musée de l’homme, takes a bold step to denounce racism as the French elections come upon France in May. The museum's first year-long exhibition, named “NOUS ET LES AUTRES: Des préjuges au racisme” (Us and Them: from prejudice to racism), sheds light on the scientific factors behind racist behavior. Using an innovative app called CHROMA that detects and captures the color of people's skin, the museum has designed its exhibition featuring personalized posters of people. Using this application, the museum will then ask all of France and the whole world to become ‘the colors of the exhibition’. Users can also share their own personalized posters on social media to promote the exhibition and take a stand against racism.
