Just Black?
- 1992 ----- color ----- 57 min ----- vhs
- Several articulate young men and women of mixed racial heritage (each has one black parent, and a white, Asian or Hispanic second parent) share their struggle to establish, acquire and assert a racial identity. Their experiences lead one to question whether there is room in America for a multi-racial identity. Anthropologist Francine Winddance Twine questions these University of California, Berkeley, students on dating, family relationships, friendships and childhood experiences. As these young people speak of their hopes and frustrations, they all reveal the tension of having their multicultural background overlooked and being classified as having one racial identity.
