Racism is the main issue of a process of miseducation and dehumanization in today’s society. This is transferred to a media system that keeps on building a dis-torted vision of the relationship between cultures, strengthening the invisibility of immigrants. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the art as educational tools in the at-tempt to contrast the cultural forces of dehumanization, replacing them with hu-manization options. Culture and education are about what it means to be human and here, museums have a significant part to play, expecially now. Infact, the educational role of museums is changing: museums are democratic educational institutions that contribute to culture, an inclusive culture that dialogue with everyone, being an active resource in society.
