What Are You? A CRT Perspective on the Experiences of Mixed Race Persons in "Post-Racial" America
Anderson, Celia Rousseau
Race, Ethnicity and Education, v18 n1 p1-19 2015
In this article, the author employs Critical Race Theory (CRT) to examine the experiences of mixed race individuals in the United States. Drawing on historical and contemporary conditions involving persons of mixed race, the author considers how key ideas from CRT can be useful to frame an analysis of the experiences of multiracial persons in the US. To supplement the analysis, the author also includes fictionalized narratives in the tradition of CRT. In conclusion, the author considers how this examination of mixed race persons might inform K-12 education.
