Neil DeGrasse Tyson We are about to wrap up Space Science July in America. Billionaire Richard Branson soared into space aboard a Virgin Galactic flight, and Jeff Bezos boarded Blue Origin on July 20 to become the second billionaire to have bragging rights that go all the way into space. That brings us to the wildly popular astrophysicist, Neil DeGrasse Tyson, who is one of my personal heroes. He is our Famous Friday personality for today. Tyson has been interviewed everywhere it seems this month. His down-to-earth explanation of what [...]

I read a few articles in the past week that make me wonder what will become of the Multiracial community if we do not comment on those articles and those like them. The first one is about the singer/songwriter, Halsey. She gave birth to a baby while she was wearing her hair in box braids. Apparently, many people did not know that she was Biracial until they saw the pictures, which caused people to surmise that she had been “passing as white.” Perhaps she was just being quietly Biracial. She’s [...]

Khloe Kardashian Speaks Out Khloe Kardashian recently talked about raising her Biracial child as a White mom. Good for her! She refuses to force her child to have to pick one race over another, or to choose her mother or father’s race alone. Project RACE commends Ms. Kardashian on her decision. She also uses the term “Biracial,” which is a respectable, educated word that we prefer, along with “Multiracial.” Appearing on Leomie Anderson's "Role Model" podcast the reality star/entrepreneur talked about raising her 3-year-old daughter, True, whose father is professional basketball player [...]

It has been a while since the name Sydney McLaughlin has been discussed here on Project RACE, and I think this Famous Friday is a great time to mention her again! Sydney was born on August 7, 1999 in Dunellen, New Jersey and is of White and Black descent. McLaughlin is a hurdler and Sprinter who has competed in the 2016 Summer Olympics and qualified for this year’s summer Olympics in Tokyo! She most likely got her passion for running from her parents, who were both runners. Her father [...]
