“THEM: Images of Separation” Exhibit Comes to Monroe

Ferris State University’s Jim Crow Museum of Racist Memorabilia brings the exhibit “THEM: Images of Separation” to the Monroe County Community College library. The 35 pieces in the show include images from pop culture that have been used to reinforce stereotypes about historically marginalized groups, confronting viewers with an ugly truth about our history that is not as far removed from present day as many would like to think. From postcards, souvenirs, games and other ephemera, many of the items displayed contain violent images that may not be appropriate for children under 13. On display through April.
