The Half of It: A Discussion of Race, Identity and Political Polarisation

Tuesday 8 October

In The Half of It, authors Emma Slade Edmondson and Nicole Ocran, hosts of the critically acclaimed podcast Mixed Up, discuss what it truly means to be of mixed heritage.

 

They delve into everything from culture and identity to interracial relationships, to adoption, to understanding the historical context of mixed-race people – ultimately culminating in a rounder and deeper appreciation for the mixed-identity.

Whether you are mixed, you know someone mixed, if you have ever considered dating outside of your race, if you’re a parent committed to sharing a more diverse view of the world with your child, or indeed an adult wanting to expand your views on culture and identity – then The Half of It is for you.

Event organised with the Friends of Carnegie Library. Special thanks to The Uncommon wine company for sponsorship.
