Here are a few external reading and podcasts about being multiracial that we have gathered.

CHAPTER 3: THE MULTIRACIAL IDENTITY GAP

Pew Research Center

"How you were raised, how you see yourself and how the world sees you have a profound effect in shaping multiracial identity, the survey finds. For many mixed-race Americans, these powerful influences may be as important as racial background in shaping their racial identity."

ALL MIXED UP: WHAT DO WE CALL PEOPLE OF MULTIPLE BACKGROUNDS?

NPR Code Switch

"I get through grade school and college assuming polite society agrees with my mom, that calling someone "mixed" is dehumanizing and intrusive. But at work one day, I see a copy of a book called Mixed Me! floating around. It's by dreamboat actor Taye Diggs, who is black and had a kid with Idina Menzel (aka Queen Elsa from Frozen), who is white. I'm shocked to see that word in big crayon letters scrawled across the cover of a kids' book."

'RACIAL IMPOSTOR SYNDROME': HERE ARE YOUR STORIES

NPR Codeswitch

"It's tricky to nail down exactly what makes someone feel like a "racial impostor." For one Code Switch follower, it's the feeling she gets from whipping out "broken but strangely colloquial Arabic" in front of other Middle Easterners."
