    Too Black Too Fast, the brainchild of artist Michael McBride, began with a conversation in 1991. McBride was approached by Yusef Harris, a friend and business associate. Harris had been contacted by an employee of Churchill Downs (Louisville, Kentucky) because of his extensive knowledge of African-American literature. Having spent time in Louisville and in Lexington, Kentucky at various street festivals and fairs over the years, Harris contacted McBride to discuss the knowledge of paintings of Black jockeys. The exhibit has giclee' prints as well as bronzes depicting historical figures and race scenes. In addition, there will be a panel discussion on February 15 with the project team as well as a musical look at the project on campus February 25th in the Music Education building.
