Mixed Heritage

By Stefan Kiesbye

Being of mixed-heritage is a beautiful thing, because it is a sign of harmony between two or more ethnicities, but it also comes with stigma and challenges. If you're not of mixed-heritage, it is important that you understand the challenges that others face, and maintain a balanced view of all the people who make our world a great place. This book shares several compelling first-hand stories of what it's like to be of mixed-heritage. Essayist Josh Freedman Berthoud states that mixed marriages enrich rather than dilute culture, which is an essential message. Elliott Lewis shows readers what it's like to always be questioned about identity. These and more essays will help all of your readers appreciate each other's uniqueness.
