What are Multiracial Relationships?
Multiracial relationships are when two people of different ethnic backgrounds are a couple, also known as interracial relationships. It can be a couple where one is Hispanic and the other is Asian, for example. Or, it can be a couple who are both multiracial-such as one person having White and Black parents and the other person has Latino and Asian parents. As society becomes increasingly multiethnic and as multiracial relationships continue to rise, society may begin to look more alike than different. You could say that multiracial partners and their children are the pioneers of a changing culture. Like most pioneers, however, there are challenges associated with being first.
