Moderated by four women, the most recent posts feature photos of family members. From their ‘about’ blurb: This is a blog for those of us who are forgotten in the mainstream anti-racism movement. Those of us who are biracial, multiracial, and multiethnic and have struggled year after year with establishing our identities. This is a safe space for all mixed people of color.

Congratulations to Tessanne Chin! Winner of Season 5 on the Voice. Her success on the show gave America an opportunity to regularly view her supportive Mixed family on the small screen without fanfare. It was beautiful to see how her family shared the bond of storytelling through music.

Her father, Richard Chin, is of Chinese descent with Cherokee ancestry and her mother, Christine Chin is of half Black and half English/African ancestry. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tessanne_Chin
