## What is Who Am I? Race Awareness Game?

Fun and educational two-player game that teaches kids to think responsibly about race and diversity! 

* Awarded as one of the top 100 products for parents, teachers and kids by Common Sense Media. 
* Featured in Parents Magazine, CNN, NY Times, Slate, Wired and Katie Couric.

Developed by Dr. Michael Baran, cultural anthropologist at Harvard University, “Who Am I? Race Awareness Game” is designed to open a dialogue about human physical diversity and racial identification. In this game, one player selects a target picture and the other player asks ‘yes or no’ questions to try and figure out who was picked.

• Features over 150 stunning photographs of real people from varied backgrounds.
• Learn over 60 practical tips on ways to talk with kids about race.
• Raise kids to be confident and thoughtful about our multicultural world.
• Play over and over with new combinations of pictures each time.
• Builds deductive reasoning and communication skills.

 
Researchers have found that most parents do not talk to their children about race. They think their children don’t notice race and they want them to grow up to be “colorblind.” Unfortunately, that is not happening. Children are learning about race from a very young age. It is therefore critical that parents talk with their children about race. Taking the time now to broach these conversations will not only inspire productive conversations today, but will also open up a space for sincere dialogue in the future.

Our goal is to make widespread some of the fascinating anthropological, historical, psychological and sociological insights about race – how race developed, how race is historically changing, and how race affects our everyday lives as it intersects with other categories of identity such as ethnicity, nationality, religion, and gender. By teaching about race in an innovative and engaging way, we are working towards promoting respect, understanding and empathy for all people.

### 5/5 — Nice app, shame about the other reviewers

*2018-12-19, version 2.0*

If your first reaction to learning about various members of humanity is extreme defensiveness, maybe some self-examination is due, haha. 

Regardless, this is a nice app.

### 3/5 — How do you play?

*2014-06-26*

Instructions not clear on how to play the game.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2012-08-18, version 1.2*

Fun and educational. Great tool for opening dialogue. Highly recommended.

### 1/5 — Waste of time. 👎

*2012-06-18, version 1.2*

I'm tech savvy, and have successfully downloaded hundreds of applications.  After logging in to the app, I get a blank white screen.  Tried deleting and reinstalling and was met with the same result.  Clicked "app support," and taken to a site that offers no support; just a page wherein you can submit your photograph to be included in the app.  Seemed interesting and looked forward to playing it with my children.  Oh, well.

### 3/5 — Ok

*2012-03-10, version 1.2*

There aren't enough images of Asian or Arabic people in this app.
