Summary:
"In Between Black and Brown, Rebecca Romo, G. Reginald Daniel, and J. Sterphone begin with by asking, How do individuals with one African American parent and one Chicana/o or Mexican parent racially and ethnically identify? Between Black and Brown challenges the commonly held belief that all individuals with any amount of African ancestry are Black. Rather, Blaxicans embrace and live a multiracial identity of both African American and Chicana/o ancestries, histories, physical appearances, social formation, and politics through their own self-definitions"-- Provided by publisher.
