The Kirwan Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity was established at The Ohio State University in May of 2003. The focus of the Institute is national and global.

In the articulation of a mission statement, the Ad Hoc Committee established a framework in which the Institutes energy would be focused in the following ways:

* Fostering critical and creative thinking on concepts about race and ethnicity;

* examining hierarchies and systems of control, domination, and oppression;

* exploring the interrelatedness of race and ethnicity to other foci such as gender and class;

* examining the cultural, economic, political, and social experiences of racial and ethnic minority groups in the Americas;

* interrogating the material conditions of life and achievement among groups who are systematically subjected to systems of domination and oppression.
