The Mixed Multiracial Guide to Wellbeing with Namalee Bolle

This week on Militantly Mixed, I’m joined by Namalee Bolle, author of The Mixed Multiracial Guide to Wellbeing. Namalee and I have known each other for years through virtual Mixed community spaces, so it felt extra special to finally have her on the show to talk about her book and the work she’s been doing to support Mixed and multiracial folks.In this episode, we discuss the inspiration behind The Mixed Multiracial Guide to Wellbeing and the importance of having resources that specifically address the mental health and lived experiences of Mixed people. We talk about identity, navigating a monoracial world, and the ways Mixed folks can better understand themselves while resisting othering and erasure.This book is such an important contribution to conversations around Mixed identity, multiracial wellbeing, and mental health, and I genuinely recommend it.And yes *** spoiler alert *** I’m in the book, along with a few other Militantly Mixed cousins!If you’ve ever struggled with questions around identity, belonging, or how to navigate being Mixed in a world that wants to categorize you, this book is absolutely worth checking out.Get the BookBuy on Amazon https://amzn.to/4uoSCACBuy on Bookshop (Support Indie Bookstores) https://bookshop.org/a/103244/9781805013655Support Militantly MixedIf you enjoy the show and want to help keep conversations about mixed-race identity, multiracial community, and intersectional experiences going, here are a few ways to support:Visit the Website https://militantlymixed.comLeave a Review or Send a Voicemail Your reviews help new listeners find the show, and I love hearing from the Mixed Cousins community.Support on Paypalhttps://paypal.me/militantlymixedShop Militantly Mixed Merch Logo tees, “Mixed & Hella Queer,” and more.Follow Militantly MixedInstagram: @militantlymixed Bluesky: @militantlymixed Facebook: Militantly Mixed Podcast
