New York Times article on Mixed-Race Artists
The New York Times continues its Race Remixed series today with the article, Pushing Boundaries, Mixed-Race Artists Gain Notice.
To quote: “…work by mixed-race artists is increasingly visible in museum exhibitions, in bookstores and online — raised to the spotlight by new census numbers that show a roughly 32 percent increase since 2000 in the number of Americans declaring multiracial identity, as well as by a biracial president, an explosion of blogs and Web sites about multiracialism, and the advent of critical mixed-race studies on college campuses.”
