The folks over at Mixed Media Watch have a link to an interview with “biracial” author Danzy Senna. An excerpt:
One of the things Im sort of wary of in the multiracial movement is a denial of the persistence of racism.
No one I’ve ever encountered in my many years in the leadership of the “multiracial” movement has denied the “the persistence of racism”. Those opposed to self-identification have, however, falsely attributed such sentiments to the “multiracial” movement. Ms. Senna would be wise to not fall prey to the propaganda of those opposed to self-identification. The “multiracial” movement persists despite “racism,” not in its absence.
