Multiracial Identities and Monoracism: Examining the Influence of Oppression
Johnston-Guerrero, Marc P.; Tran, Vu T.; Combs, Lisa
Journal of College Student Development, v61 n1 p18-33 Jan-Feb 2020
We explored how notions of oppression manifest in the identities of 16 multiracial college students. We were guided by two research questions: (a) How does racial oppression affect multiracial students' identities? and (b) Is that racial oppression tied to traditional manifestations of racism, monoracism, or both? Findings demonstrate that racial oppression is influential, yet there are difficulties in identifying racial oppression that targets multiracial people. This study highlights the need for more education on monoracism as a unique and connected form of oppression and on racial asymmetries within multiraciality.
