Multiraciality is not an identity to be fractured or abstracted by others, but rather integrated across multiple racial locations. Multiraciality is sophisticated and its weaving of complexity into forging new congruence posits new ways to understand identity. Multiraciality disrupts monoracial constructs and can be disorienting to others who are unable to have sufficient knowledge of self to be able to conceptualize that other persons occupy multiple racial locations across broader systems of culture and identity domains. Multiraciality is to be celebrated, explored, and made visible. Thus, this text is also reflected of different author identities and from the different academic disciplines of education, sociology, and counseling.
