SUMMARY:The Evolution and Meanings of Human Skin Color
DESCRIPTION:Buy Tickets Now!\n \nVariation in human skin color has fascinated and perplexed people for centuries. As the most visible aspect of human variation\, skin color has been used in the past as a basis for classifying people into “races.” \nIn this lecture\, Nina Jablonski will discuss the evolution of human skin color and how color-based race concepts have influenced societies and social well-being. The evolution of human skin color is one of the best examples of natural selection acting on the human body. In the 200\,000 year history of modern humans\, similar skin colors have evolved independently numerous times in response to similar environmental conditions. Understanding the evolution and social importance of skin color can help eliminate color-based discrimination and racism. \nThis event is produced in partnership with the Houston Museum of Natural Science. \n“Early Bird” tickets are $16 or $10 for Leakey Foundation supporters and museum members until September 19. \nTo receive the discount\, call the museum box office at (713) 639-4629 and use the promo code “LECLeakeyFnd.” \nStudent Admission (at box office with valid student ID) – $8.00 \nSponsored by:\nThe Brown Foundation\, Inc.\nAnn and Gordon Getty\nCamilla and George Smith
