Summary

This week on the podcast, Em and Alex are joined by the hosts of the Mixed Up podcast, Emma Slade Edmondson and Nicole Ocran! Nicole and Emma met back in 2018 and when they started chatting, they realised they had something in common that they hadn't spoken about in depth with even their family before: being mixed-race. After jokingly suggesting that their discussion should be a podcast, they launched the critically acclaimed Mixed Up podcast and have now written a book called The Half of It. In this episode, they discuss the ways in which being mixed-race is misunderstood, why many mixed-race people feel as though they can't comment on race issues, and why no one really discussed identity when they were younger. They also chat about privilege, the complex history of mixed-race people and the stereotypes that are pushed upon them.
