ASAP Presents... Kip Fullbeck

ASAP will host a lecture by author Kip Fulbeck on Monday, October 26 in the Lory Student Center Main Ballroom. Fulbeck is the author of the book Part Asian, 100% Hapa. The book addresses issues of multiracialism through photography.

Fulbeck photographed people of mixed race from the shoulders up, and asked them to answer the question “What are you?” on the back of the photo. He then exhibited his photos around the country and eventually published a selection of them.

Tickets are free and available at the iBox. The event is open to students and community members.
