Generation Mixed

In this episode, we're diving into the topic of mixed-race identity and discussing the top 12 statements that should never be said to someone who identifies as mixed-race, biracial, multiracial or interracial. Drawing from a 2014 Cosmopolitan article written by Ariel Nagi titled “12 Things You Should Never Say to a Mixed Person”, we'll be providing thoughtful and insightful responses to each statement. Join us as we explore the issues of ignorance, fetishization, and poor choice of words that often surround discussions of mixed-race identity.

We have heard about the Apache, Cherokee, even the Aztecs and the Mayans, but not much on Black Seminoles. We start learning in this episode.

This group consists of an ethnic mixture of the Seminole Indigenous tribe, escaped slaves, and free Africans that originated in Florida starting in the 1600s. Today, the remnants of Black Seminoles live primarily in Oklahoma, and took part in the Trail of Tears. Learn even more by listening!

Daunte Wright. What do you remember about this fellow mixed race young man? He was our George Flylod. Dive right in to Part 1
April 11, 2021 shortly before 2pm, Daunte Wright was pulled over for a traffic stop which escalated into deadly consequences. He was killed by police officer Kimberly Potter in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, becoming another member of a senseless killing by police. He was only 20 years old. In Part 1, you will hear about the incident, the aftermath, and some policy changes as results.

What are thoughts on Daunte Wright and why this transpired? What can we do to eradicate more horrific murders at the hands of police when the suspect is a POC? How do we avoid these suspects from turning into victims of violence?

Do you know when was the first interracial kiss on TV? In film? Did you know 1917 was the year that the first interracial romance was on film?

This episode explores the topics of interracial firsts. Technically, it was not between Cpt. Kirk and Lt. Uhura on Star Trek in 1969. Island in the Sun made in 1957, was the first film to capture an interracial kiss, which will be discussed. Finally, a long list if interracial films staring in 1917 will be named for anyone interested in watching.
