Mixed Race Studies

Scholarly perspectives on the mixed race experience.

“I identify as both [black (Australian Aboriginal) and white]. So you know and I’ve had no secret of who I am and what my background is. I think that it’s important for me to identify strongly as both because it’s quite evident that I’m not particularly one or the other. You know, I’m one of those people who looks mixed-race. So you’re going to look at me and immediately say, ‘what are you?’ And so just being able to relate and identify strongly with both of my cultural backgrounds is something that’s really important for me.” —Kira Lea Dargin
