Review: The problem here is that people are born whole and they shouldn't have to find 'wholeness'. The problem is that books like this actually reinforce a feeling of being different by trying to make everyone want to fit into some racial category rather then helping people just feel like Americans and forget race. What this book fails to mention is that race is not a defining factor in life, rather it is an insignificant item that does little to make one who one is. Class and values are for more determinant.

Summary: Great book
Review: This is a great book where Frazier explores many of the issues that multiraical people deal with. She uses personal interviews with multiracial people as well as drawing on her own personal experience. Although I am not multiracial (I am black) I found it very insightful and it will help me to relate to multiracial people better. A must read for anyone who is multiracial or who cares about befriending them.

Summary: Very insightful
Review: Tucker Frazier breaks new ground in this thoughtfully written and thoroughly original work. Through her broad interviews and examples from her own life, she gives voice to the under represented of the under represented. And her reflections on the spiritual lives of multiracial people are profound. Readable, enjoyable, provocative.
