THE HISTORY OF WHITE PEOPLE IN AMERICA examines how skin color has come to define race in our country. The shorts capture the truth of what it means to be American – that “us” and “them” are constantly redefined, that our racial history deserves contemplation, and that above all else we are bound by our rich differences in experience and identity.  Follow and join the social conversation with #YourVote2020 and #HistoryofWhitePeopleinAmerica.
