In this excerpt of TALKING ABOUT RACE, students from three major American universities candidly share their perspectives. The topics include self-separation of ethnic groups, the climate toward talking about race on campus, discrimination, affirmative action policies and individual responsibility for change.

The material is excerpted from the acclaimed documentary film SKIN DEEP, a feature-length film that candidly examines race relations on college campuses in the United States.

In module 2, students from six major American universities spend three days together to support and challenge one another with openness and candor. The dialog focuses on a variety of topics including the concept of individual responsibility, feeling separated from each other, wanting others to understand and finally, what can be done to move from awareness to action.
