SUMMARY:Exhibit - Texas "Identity" Politics 1900 - Present Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:
 Texas "Identity" Politics: 1900 - Present\n
 \n
 What 
 is politics? When you think of politics, 
 does it apply only to certain parts of your life? 
 Or can everything be considered political?\n
 Every 
 person has multiple axes of identity: 
 gender, sexual orientation, religion, race/ethnicity, 
 political affiliation. As we go through 
 life, we also have more changeable and/or 
 ephemeral identities: student, parent, family 
 member, professional, and so on. This exhibit 
 focuses on political identities in Texas 
 from 1900 to the present and the ways in which 
 politics have become intertwined with our 
 identities. The word politics, like propaganda, 
 often has negative connotations, but it's 
 really just a descriptive term that can be fraught 
 with complexity and emotion. \n
 \n
 Texas 
 "Identity" Politics: 1900 - present shows different 
 groups advocating for their civil rights 
 in relation to various aspects of their identities, 
 such as worker, mother, or citizen. 
 When people advocate for or against any piece 
 of legislation or policy that affects people's 
 lives in any way, then they are being political.\n
