Using the 2000 U.S. Census, I analyze the impact of a multiracial parent on the classification of children in four types of multiracial families (e.g., white\/non-white, black\/non-black). Compared to families where parents are of two different single-race backgrounds, parental multiracial identity decreased the likelihood of multiracial classification due to the use of labels reflecting a shared single-race category (e.g. white-Asian mother and white father). When parents&#8217; races did not overlap, multiracial classification was more common in households if the other parent was white or American Indian. These results suggest that intergenerational transmission of a multiracial identity is more common in contexts of racial diversity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Will &#8220;Multiracial&#8221;: Survive to the Next Generation?: The Racial Classification of Children of Multiracial Parents Social Forces Volume 86, Number 2\u00a0(December 2007) pages 821-849 DOI: 10.1353\/sof.2008.0007 Jenifer L.
