Drawn from interviews done in France and the United States, RACE explores how a nation's history of cultural exploitation continues to affect the lives and actions of its inhabitants. France in the 1990s had seen the rise of fervent anti-immigration sentiment. Studying historical texts, Pascal Rambert concluded that European colonialism on the continents of Africa, Asia and the Americas was the main cause of European immigration. His study also led him to his contention that the colonial attitude, still visible in some parts of European culture, has been, and continues to be, one of the most consistent causes of tension and conflict today. After doing research and conducting interviews in Paris' Arab, African and Asian communities, the piece was written.
