Welcome to my conversation with Jordin, founder of the Mixed Race Revolution,a new movement dedicated to mixed race/biracial/multiracial pride, beauty, issues, understanding, and compassion. Jordin is Louisiana Creole, which is a mix of African, European, and Native American. Some people in the mixed race space will use the terms MGM (multi-generationally mixed) or FGM (first-generationally mixed), but Jordin prefers to specify Louisiana Creole because it’s much more specific.

Even though we had different parentages and Jordin was never doubted as being a part of his family, we faced many of the same questions growing up. We’ve both been asked “what” we are, been told we’re not what we say we are, and bullied for being too dark and too light. In this episode we’ll talk about what we’ve learned throughout our lives about how to deal with the constant questioning.
