This is a community for people of mixed racial or ethnic identity and mixed-race couples. Here you can discuss problems, share discoveries, tell your stories, and ask for advice.
It is also a place to talk about the politics of race, colonialism, cultural contact, and ethnic unrest. The discussions can be as personal or as academic as you like. Feel free to join in if you are fascinated with racial issues, regardless of your background.
If you wish to post negative comments, do not hide behind "anonymous" posting. Be yourself, and be realistic. And most of all be tolerant, fair, and supportive.
Want to explore some online links? Look at these:multiracial activist; Metisse; Mavin Magazine; Interracial Voice; Race Traitor; melungeons; Metis; Native American; transracial adoption; Multicultural studies; Women of Color; Urban Mozaik; Homi Bhabha ; ...more to come!
