Variation 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.” In this lecture, Leakey Foundation grantee Nina Jablonski discusses the evolution of human skin color and how color-based race concepts have influenced societies and impacted social well-being.
"The Evolution and Meanings of Human Skin Color" was presented at the Houston Museum of Natural Science on September 27, 2018, as part of The Leakey Foundation's Speaker Series program in partnership with the Houston Museum of Natural Science.
