On this episode, hosts Melissa Giraud and Andrew Grant-Thomas speak with Gina Miranda Samuels, Professor at the University of Chicago School of Social Work, Policy, and Practice, about why “multiracial” kids are often seen as part of the solution to our racial conflicts. How does that belief affect those kids and how might we respond as caregivers?
