About this title

Review:

"A groundbreaking and thoughtful collection of narratives, essays, and poems on challenges that arise for individuals of mixed race identity at different stages of development. Drawing on the experiences of an international collection of scholars, these artifacts remind us that in a world where race and ethnic identities are often used to confer power and privilege, those who occupy hybrid spaces because of their status as 'mixed' people, often have unique insights into how these social constructions of identity play out in everyday life. Illuminating and thought provoking, this book will serve as a useful guide to anyone who seeks to understand why race and ethnicity continue to matter so much in modern society."
-- Pedro A. Noguera, Ph.D., Distinguished Professor of Education, University of California, Los Angeles
