In the fifth episode of On Being Biracial, hosts Daralyse Lyons and Malcolm Burnley discuss the familiar feeling of being too much of one thing, not enough of another in the eyes of others, and the ways biracial people can find belonging and authenticity despite these experiences.
In this episode, you will learn:
-
Why access to spaces is not always synonymous with inclusion.
-
The essential role that college can play in fostering holistic expression and belonging among mixed people.
-
How outsider experiences within family can be a particularly hard, if not common, experience for multiracial people.
-
Why code-switching and other forms of identity-signaling can be acts of vitality for multiracial people.
