The Multiracial Experience

How might a multiracial concept dismantle our negative construction of race? How do we redefine `ethnicity'' when `race'' is less central to the definition? The Multiracial Experience challenges current theoretical and political conceptualizations of race using the multiracial experience of individuals as a tool for examining these and other questions. Each contribution opens with a personal sketch of the multiracial experience. Topics explored in the book include: the differences between race and ethnicity; colour gender and sexuality in a multiracial context; and ethnicity and its role in identity formation.
