Welcome to Many Roads In Conversation, where we look deeply at issues affecting communities within the United States. This inaugural series focuses on the roots  of anti-Asian violence. Joining us for the third episode are Dmae Lo Roberts and Patti Duncan, who talk about growing up mixed race in America, as well as the politics, terminology, and gender issues surrounding mixed race families. Dmae is a writer, media and theater artist and is the executive producer of MediaRites, a nonprofit based in Portland. Patti is an associate professor of Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Oregon State University.

Our audio editing was done by Dmae Lo Roberts assisted by Rick March and Gregg Palmer. Our executive producer is Sankar Raman.

This episode is produced as a part of Oregon Rises Against Hate coalition, and made possible by a generous contribution by Anne Naito-Campbell.
