Some students seem to be searching for identities that acknowledge greater complexity and fluidity.
I try to include narratives about that experience as well. Although all the students represented in the video have one black parent, the other parent is white, in some cases, Latino, or Asian, so it deals with considerable diversity within its limitation. I think it is important for people to be able to name themselves. However, research suggests that the ways biracial students identify themselves shift over time. The student who says she is biracial this year, may only describe herself publicly as Black or Latina next year, even though she still acknowledges her mixed heritage, for example.
