This article describes an assignment to help students learn about racial identity development. The Helms (1990a) model (white racial identity) and the Cross and Thomas (Cross, 1978) nigrescence model (black racial identity) serve as theoretical anchors for the ethnic or racial aspect of The Psychology of Race and Gender course. Students used these models to chart the development of a character's racial identity in film or literature. Students enrolled in a predominantly White university in Kentucky reported that the exercise was thought provoking, intriguing, and informative. Students agreed that the exercise should be continued for subsequent classes.
