Mixed-race students have often been overlooked in research regarding racial identity development. Current research tends to focus on models of multiracial identity development and its implications for college instructors and support personnel, but very little research exists to identify the needs of multiracial students while they are in primary…

Since the 1970's, bullying has been a popular phenomenon of study among various disciplines of academia, including criminology. However, even within the field of criminology, bullying has consistently been studied in two principal domains: among young children in a classroom/playground setting or among adults as a part of workplace harassment.…

This polyethnography is an interdisciplinary collaboration between four multiracial women faculty employed at different universities across the US to examine their experiences navigating monocentricity in higher education. This insightful study amplifies the voices of a particular subset of women of color faculty who identify multiracially -- a…

This study aims to understand how multiracial Asian American children are portrayed and illustrated in children's picturebooks, with a special focus on their racial identity development. Multiracial individuals are those whose parents are from two or more distinct racial groups (Reynolds, 2009; Viager, 2011). In this study, the descriptor…

In this article, we explore our desire to better understand the complexity of multi-ethnic/racial identities, positionality, and how this relates to solidarity building within educative spaces. In particular, we are interested in the relationship between whiteness and its nuanced complexity of identities influencing "whitened"…

Because Multiracial people are often pressed between socially constructed monoracial categories and forced to navigate a monoracial-only paradigm of race, Multiracial individuals may develop a heightened (Multi)racial consciousness, through which they queer race, or (un)consciously challenge normative, often-oppressive racial constructs. While the…

Using counter-storytelling, this manuscript provides auto-ethnographies from two Black-biracial scholars. The authors' narratives present an intimate account of how being half - Black is experienced by Black-biracial individuals. Specifically, this study details the accounts of how two Black-biracial scholars, who don't fit into the rigid…

Drawing from Black Critical Theory (BlackCrit) as a theoretical framework, this study examined how Afro-Latin@s are represented in U.S. world history textbooks alongside global narratives of race and anti-Black systemic racism that are fundamental to understanding Afro-Latin@s' historical and contemporary lived experiences. Research findings…

This study centers 26 Multiracial faculty members' voices to explore the research question: What are Multiracial tenured and tenure-track faculty members' experiences with teaching, research, and service within 4-year colleges and universities in the United States? Findings suggest that Multiracial faculty members use their research as a mechanism…

Researchers have explored how multiracial women students encounter different racialized experiences when compared to their monoracial peers and multiracial men on campus, suggesting that their experiences with racial stereotypes may also diverge from both of these populations. Guided by critical race theory, in this study I explored 10 multiracial…

This article theorizes the concept of racial microaffirmations and illustrates different microaffirmation types. We report findings from a study that employed narrative interviews to solicit stories from racially minoritized students at a predominantly white university. Participants included 16 graduate students and 18 undergraduate students who…

As the white (In an act of resistance to the maintenance and promotion of white supremacy, I do not capitalize "white" or acknowledge it as a proper noun.) mother of biracial children who look white, navigating critical race conversations as a part of Critical Race Parenting (ParentCrit) is just that, navigation. In this article I offer…

GIVEN the focus of this research, Rachel C. Boyle's ontological positioning is central to her response as she is a researcher from a mixed race (Black Caribbean and White British) background. Her view of racism has been shaped by personal, professional and academic experiences. Within this article the author, Louise Taylor addresses the position…

This manuscript lays the foundation for a critical multiracial theory (MultiCrit) in education. The author uses extant literature and their own research that focused on multiraciality on the college campus to explore how CRT can move toward MultiCrit, which is well-positioned to frame multiracial students' experiences with race in education.

This conceptual article employs critical race theory (CRT) as a theoretical framework to explore the importance of intersectionality in critical race parenting. In particular, I focus on intersectionality to understand better how Whiteness and racial power play out in intimate relationships within the family, particularly between White parents and…
