'A rare find.' – Loyle Carner

The mainstream conversation around mixedness in the UK is too often stilted and problematic. At a time when ethnically ambiguous models fill our Instagram feeds, and children of interracial relationships are lauded as heralding in the dawn of a post-racial utopia, journalist Natalie Morris takes a deep dive into what it really means to be mixed in Britain today.

From blackfishing to the fetishisation of mixed babies; from the complexities of passing and code-switching to navigating the world of work and dating, Natalie explores the ways in which these issues uniquely impact those of mixed heritage. Drawing from a wealth of research, interviews and her own personal experiences, in Mixed/Other, Natalie aims to dismantle stereotypes and amplify the voices of mixed Britons today, shining a light on the struggles and the joys that come with being mixed.
