- Race: An open discussion - What race will you choose for your interracial child?
On this episode, we delve into another question from one of our listeners: "What are your plans regarding racial identify and your baby? Will you allow them to decide how to identify, or encourage them to choose (or not) an identify (whether it is black, white, or biracial). I am the black older sibling of two biracial children. One identifies as black/African America, and the other as biracial/mixed. I always wondered how parents made these decisions."
