On Being Biracial

Ep. 10 - A Patchwork Quilt of Belonging


Listen Later

In the tenth and final episode of On Being Biracial, hosts Daralyse Lyons and Malcolm Burnley interview each other about their reflections on the season and what they've learned as well as what's in store for multiracial people in America in the future.

In this episode, you will learn:

  • How this project affirmed, altered, and challenged the hosts' understanding of their own racial identities and assumptions about the mixed experience.

    • What some of the hosts' favorite parts of the season were, along with moments (and outtakes) that didn't make it into the first nine episodes.

      • How this season's interviews with adults compared to the youth voices pilot episodes.

        • What we think will change -- or not -- during the next 30 years of discourse about being biracial.

          This season's interviewees are: Ashanti Martin, Azaria Keys, Bárbara Idalissee Abadía-Rexach, Carter O'Brien Ford, Cat Dyson, Chantelle Fitzgerald, Charlotte Gill, David Ryan Barcega Castro-Harris, Drew Allmond, Evan Fong Jaroff, Hannah Wallace, Ian Burnley, Jewel Love, John Blake, Jourdin Davis, Kimberly Ortiz-Hartman, Lise Funderburg, Mat Johnson, Nora Elmarzouky, Rachael Go, Rachel Lauren, Samonte Cruz, Sandra Clark, Sarabella Rocha, Sarah Gaither, Sienna McWhirter, Tyla Taylor, Tyler Sloane, W Kamau Bell, Zein Hassanein, and Mark Hugo Lopez.
