Working with Mixed Heritage Students offers a collection of
writings that bridges the social science and educational literature
related to mixed heritage identity development and schooling in
diverse contexts. As such, it is the first book of its kind to
provide a direct focus on multiracial/ethnic identity and formal
education in the United States based on the scholarship of
educational researchers. The two common threads linking the
chapters are: the flexible, yet situated nature of ethnic and
racial identities among mixed heritage students; and the importance
of theorizing social contexts when interpreting and representing
identity, community, and belonging. In addition to exploring
general themes of identity development, Working with Mixed Heritage
Students addresses theoretical and methodological issues in
conducting research on topics related to mixed heritage students,
as well as implications for teacher preparation and educational
practice. Ultimately, the authors brought together in this volume
share a focus on recently mixed heritage students of first, or
second, or third generation multiracial and multiethnic descent.
This diversity of perspectives on such a complex topic creates a
tension within the book, one that naturally emerges through
interdisciplinary collaboration. But it is hoped that this tension
is just one of many that will lead to further reflection, dialogue,
and action by researchers and educators working with like
populations.
