Book Description
Grounded in the life experiences of children, youth, teachers, and caregivers, this book investigates how implicit bias affects multiracial kids in unforeseen ways. Drawing on critical mixed-race theory and developmental psychology, the authors employ radical listening to examine both how these children experience school and what schools can do to create more welcoming learning environments. They examine how the silencing of mixed-race experiences often creates a barrier to engaging in nuanced conversations about race and identity in the classroom, and how teachers are finding powerful ways to forge meaningful connections with their mixed-race students. This is a book written from the inside, integrating not only theory and research but also the authors’ own experiences negotiating race and racism for and with their mixed-race children. It is a timely and essential read not only because of our nation’s changing demographics, but also because of our racially hostile political climate. Book Features: Examination of the most contemporary issues that impact mixed-race children and youth, including the racialized violence with which our country is now reckoning.Guided exercises with relevant, action-oriented information for educators, parents, and caregivers in every chapter.Engaging storytelling that brings the school worlds of mixed-race children and youth to life.Interdisciplinary scholarship from social and developmental psychology, critical mixed-race studies, and education. Expansion of the typical Black/White binary to include mixed-race children from Asian American, Latinx, and Native American backgrounds.

Book Description
A young biracial girl looks around her world for her color. She finally chooses her own, and creates a new word for herself—honeysmoke. Simone wants a color. She asks Mama, “Am I black or white?” “Boo,” Mama says, just like mamas do, “a color is just a word.” She asks Daddy, “Am I black or white?” “Well,” Daddy says, just like daddies do, “you’re a little bit of both.” For multiracial children, and all children everywhere, this picture book offers a universal message that empowers young people to create their own self-identity. Simone knows her color—she is honeysmoke. An Imprint Book "This will appeal to so many biracial kids looking for a way to embrace every part of themselves." —NBCNews.com "A terrific addition to the WeNeedDiverseBooks canon, where it joins such books as Selina Alko's I’m Your Peanut Butter Big Brother and Taye Diggs' Mixed Me!." —Booklist

Book Description
Mixed presents engaging and incisive first-person experiences of what it is like to be multiracial in what is supposedly a postracial world. Bringing together twelve essays by college students who identify themselves as multiracial, this book considers what this identity means in a reality that occasionally resembles the post-racial dream of some and at other times recalls a familiar world of racial and ethnic prejudice.Exploring a wide range of concerns and anxieties, aspirations and ambitions, these young writers, who all attended Dartmouth College, come from a variety of racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic backgrounds. Unlike individuals who define themselves as having one racial identity, these students have lived the complexity of their identity from a very young age. In Mixed, a book that will benefit educators, students, and their families, they eloquently and often passionately reveal how they experience their multiracial identity, how their parents' race or ethnicity shaped their childhoods, and how perceptions of their race have affected their relationships.

Book Description
Beyond Black: Biracial Identity in America is a groundbreaking study of the dynamic meaning of racial identity for multiracial people in post-civil rights America. Kerry Ann Rockquemore and David L. Brunsma document the wide range of racial identities that individuals with one black and one white parent develop, and they provide an incisive sociological explanation of the choices facing those who are multiracial. Stemming from the controversy of the 2000 census and whether an additional "multiracial" category should be added to the survey, this second edition of Beyond Black uses both survey data and interviews of multiracial young adults to explore the contemporary dynamics of racial identity formation. The authors raise social and political questions that are posed by expanding racial categorization on the U.S. census. Book jacket.

But for multicultural, multi-racial and youngsters of mixed-race adoptions, that question is inevitable. Thank goodness for Mixed Feelings, a book that vividly, insightfully and empathically helps "mixed" children figure out how to embrace the whole of who they are. Lively art and true-to-life examples make this book a valuable curriculum for teachers, parents and communities. In fact, don't let your kid read this alone. Read it with family, friends and neighbors. Soon you'll be asking yourselves the question that Arboleda so deftly poses in the book: If an alien were making the decision, which of you would he put in the box marked, "Other?" -- Desiree Cooper, former co-host, NPR's Weekend America; Pulitzer Prize nominated columnist, Detroit Free Press and author of Know The Mother. Mixed-race and born in Japan. Mixed Feelings can be useful at all grade levels and is extremely valuable for training multicultural educators, social workers, psychologists and counselors. Mixed Feelings covers critical topics about cultural identity that are often poorly understood, and meets so many of the basic tenets of culturally responsive education. Teachers must ensure that students see themselves in the curriculum and they must be able to identify with characters in the books that they read. Terminology and cultural situations are explained very well. As one of the rare books about biracial and multiracial children, Mixed Feelings should become a standard in schools at all levels. -- Dr. Bill Howe Past President, National Association for Multicultural Education; teacher trainer and diversity consultant Mixed Feelings is a 'colorful' and clever story that biracial, multiracial and multicultural children, families, and their teachers will enjoy and benefit from reading. With the help of the narrator "Chamix" and all of the children's characters, Mixed Feelings highlights the importance for all children (and all humans) to have a sense of belonging. The story demonstrates how invaluable it is to have healthy and positive social interactions with people who may not look just like us yet may have significant shared or similar experiences and circumstances. Mixed Feelings emphasizes, with wonderful narration and illustration, the importance of fostering and promoting healthy identity formation in "mixed" children in the United States and beyond. --Teresa E.
