The Color Line: Black and White Aesthetic Values | Barbara-Shae Jackson | TEDxTuscaloosa

Do we all see art the same way? Have you ever considered not only how your race and culture are portrayed in art, but also the lens through which you perceive it? Barbara-Shae shares her experiences and research on aesthetic values among different races.

She is a published writer whose work has been featured in MOTIVATED Magazine and ESSENCE Magazine’s Bestseller "Souls of My Young Sisters."

Prior to starting her graduate program, Barbara-Shae taught English in Angola, Africa as a part of their infrastructure rebuild post-civil war.
