    It's Mixed Experience History Month!

    Last year, on this blog, I celebrated May as Mixed-Race People History Month.  Well, it's time once again to celebrate.  I've changed the official name to Mixed Experience History Month because it's important to highlight not only Mixed individuals, but also important historical events in the Mixed experience.  Also, this year, I will profile people who are not necessarily Mixed but who are involved in the Mixed experience

    Look for profiles of accomplished people involved with the Mixed experience each weekday of the month--specifically focusing on important historical figures.  Last year, I included profiles of photographer Jules Lion, Saint Anastacia, piano prodigy and journalist Phillipa Schuyler, White House seamstress Elizabeth Keckley, abolitionist Ellen Craft, and Vice-Presidential wife Julia Chinn among others.  Do you have anyone you would like to nominate?
