>A great exhibit re: Racism & Kids is one at the Children's Museum,
>Boston, called "The Kids Bridge". It uses three themes: 1-Value yourself
>and others, 2-Diversity is a plus; and 3-Racism exists, it hurts, but we
>can do something about it.

>The artifacts in the exhibit highlight the diversity of cultures in the
>Boston area. The interactive laser videos are narrated by students
>explore the exhibit's themes. The exhibit's target audience age is 8-12
>yrs old. If she is still at the Children's Museum, you may want to talk to
>Kathyrn Jones (617/426-6500); she was very involved in its
>development.

>Smithsonian's SITES has a traveling version of this exhibit, which was
>initially tested in Washington, D.C. To the best of my knowledge it is still
>travelling. (I don't know where though.)
