    This exhibition looks amazing ! It definitely leads the way for other cultures to also share their triumph, woes and endurance through out this American history. Also please let us not forget immigrants that worked in our railways that came from china, Mex Americans, people from other nations that were also taken advantage of and please most of all our brothers America indigenous people.

    Too general of a subject. Try picking a specific diaspora and focus on how futurism is seen through their lens. (Is what most instructors/professors/producers would say if you told them that would be the subject of your next essay/paper/informative piece)

    It really seems to me that in order for humanity to move forward in racial issues the racial classification needs to be shifted. To White Tan Yellow Brown. Although I love black people I just don't like thinking about black color.
