Poston's Biracial Model
Captions available
The idea
Poston's biracial identity model runs from feeling pressed to choose one group, through guilt and re-examination, to appreciating both heritages and integration.
In practice
A teen with a Korean mother and a Black father refusing to tick only one box.
Where people slip
Poston's model, from nineteen ninety, is one attributed account; biracial and multiracial experiences vary widely.
