When it comes to the mixed-race heritage, the idea of the biracial experience only comes to mind.
Actually, the mixed-race heritage has been historically composed of the following categories: The Afro-Marrones, the Multi-Generationally Mixed Blacks, the Multiracials, the Biracials, and the section of mixed-race Whites known as the Quadroons, Octoroons, Hexadecaroons and Multi-Generationally Mixed Whites.
The slave trade contributed to the creation of new nations, or post-slavery societies, where the descendants of the enslaved Africans dwell. These descendants now constitute distinct ethnic groups known as the African-Americans, the Cubans, Puerto-Ricans, Trinidadians, Mauritians, WaSwahili and many more. The Multi-Generationally Mixed Black Identity focuses on the study of the mixed-race groups which are present in these societies. The Multi-Generationally Mixed Blacks, also known as M.G.M, descend from mixed-race Afro people who intermarried overtime. Their core is genetically African but also multiracial since they were mixed. The specificity of their condition comes from their inability to pinpoint to a direct white ancestor in their lineages since they are the products of mixed Blacks.
They range from the darkest to the lightest skin tone, with a genetic percentage varying between 50 to 75 per cent of African ancestry.
Most of them were the products of post-slavery societies and were raised in black cultures. In the United States, the MGMs are referred to as "light-skin", "red", or Creole in Louisiana. The M.G.M experience can also be exclusively made of Afro-Asians, Afro-Natives and Afro-Arabs, hence groups which are present in the Americas, but also in Africa in nations such as Cape-Verde, Angola, the Swahili coast and the Indian Ocean islands such as Malagasy or La Réunion.
When it comes to politics, the MGM who consistute a great portion of the African-American clan, evolve in peculiar situation. Throughout American history, the slave masters made a clear distinction between the Mulattoes and the enslaved Blacks. Higher education was often granted to the Mulattoes over the Blacks and throughout the centuries, many of them intermarried in order to preserve their phenotypes, thus giving birth to lineages of modern-day MGMs. In the Southern sphere, whether in Africa, Latin America or Asia, the MGMs were created by colonial forces in order to further the elevation of a Creole culture which could serve the interests of the colonizers. In East Africa, the Arab, Indian and Asian forces also let their own form of Creolization. This book analyzes the political, cultural, social condition of the MGM Black group overtime throughout modern history.
The second part of this book, The Multi-Generationally Mixed White Identity will be published later in the year 2023.
