Seeking Participants for a Multiracial Documentary
We are in production on a documentary that looks into the subject of multiracial individuals. The director is an award winning filmmaker who has written on the multiracial issue in the Los Angeles Times. He is multiracial himself. This documentary will not repeat the multiracial clichés of the past and will instead explore impending social and cultural crisis facing multiracials as they continue to grow in numbers.
Right now we are interested in multiracial subjects—child to adult—who have experienced one or more of the following:
- Lives publicly as one race and privately as multiracial
- Encounters with the public school’s “two races or more” category
- Pre-school applications with racial categories
- Faced family or social pressures to identify with one race at the expense of other races
- Ongoing conflicts over multiracial identity within self or with others
- And any unusual multiracial conflicts that we may not yet be aware of
If any of the above applies to you, please write a paragraph describing your situation and what makes it relevant to the ongoing multiracial dialogue.
Please include the following: name, city, and an e-mail address where we can reach you. If you have a photo that you can attach, that would be appreciated.
If you have any further questions, please contact Rick at katrinanetwork@hotmail.com.
Thank you and we look forward to hearing from you!
