When the golfer Tiger Woods proclaimed himself a "Caublinasian,"
affirming his mixed Caucasian, Black, Native American and Asian
ancestry, a storm of controversy was created in a world still
perceived in terms of "black" and "white." This book is about
ordinary lives facing similar dilemmas of racial identity, of
belonging and not belonging. It tells the stories of six women of
mixed African/ African Caribbean and white European heritage to
show how the often painful experience of being a stranger in two
cultures can be named and celebrated. Jayne Ifekwunigwe explores
the cultural and historical roots of the popular discourses of
race. She analyzes the problem of theorizing mixed racial and/or
cultural identity in a global context, always relating it to the
real-life experiences of these women.
