Exploring multigenerational multiracialism with Maya Williams, Ep. 155

Written by Alex on February 11, 2018 - 0 Comments

Ep. 155: Maya Williams is a multigenerational, multiracial woman.  Her father is Black, White, and Chickahominy; her mother is of Black, White, and Cherokee descent. Her father has a mixed mother and had a black father (d. 2007); her mother has a White father and a Black and Cherokee mother.

Given this rich, multiracial background, Maya has been writing and editing the Race Section of The Tempest, pursuing interfaith work under the Interfaith Youth Core as a Better Together Coach, and completing a double major in social work and English.

She talks with Alex about what it means to hail from a family that has multiracial roots several generations back.
