Current computer graphics research practices contain racial biases that have resulted in investigations into "skin" and "hair" that focus on the hegemonic visual features of Europeans and East Asians. To broaden our research horizons to encompass all of humanity, we propose a variety of improvements to quantitative measures and qualitative practices, and pose novel, open research problems.
