ABSTRACT

This chapter investigates themes that were evident in the author's narratives and that find space in various chapters in this book, augmenting their analysis with statistics and brief notations of material that readers might refer to for additional insight. In the realm of Multiracial scholarship the author have shifted his generational location—from a doctoral candidate searching the (then) limited literature on which to build a study of Multiracial identity and convincing senior scholars that this topic was legitimate and worthy of study to a thinker in her later years who is inspired by the insights of current scholars and practitioners investigating many facets of Multiracial lives. His journey to this point has been neither straight nor planned, much like the path to his identity as a Multiracial person. Multiracial people encounter inclusion, exclusion, affirmation, and challenges in many locations within higher education.
