this episode, Jolie dives into more historical firsts in her “Reading Hour” that include the First Lady of American Samoa and her daughter’s political life and influence, a group named The Chestnut Ridge People, or CSD, as well as the trailblazer who formed the Association of MultiEthnic Americans, aka AMEA.Ramona E. Douglass (d. 2007) was a notable American activist focused on multiracial advocacy.Activism: She co-founded the National Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression and later joined the Biracial Family Network in 1986. This network led to the formation of the Association of MultiEthnic Americans (AMEA), where Douglass held various leadership roles. She was a key voice in advocating for a multiracial category in the 2000 U.S. Census, testifying before Congress and serving on the Census Advisory Committee.Heritage: Douglass was of African American, Native American (Oglala), and Sicilian descent.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramona_DouglassThe Chestnut Ridge people (CRP) of West Virginia are a mixed-race community, primarily of African, European, and Native American descent. Often referred to as "Mayles" and pejoratively as "Guineas," they have faced significant racial discrimination.Racial Identity:Tri-racial Isolate: Historically labeled as "mulattos," indicating African heritage.Claims of Native Ancestry: Some identify as Native American but lack formal tribal recognition.History:Colonial Origins: Descended from mixed-race unions in colonial Virginia, their ancestors were free people of color.Civil War Integration: By the 1860s, many intermarried with whites and identified as white. Some men served in the Union army.Discrimination:Persistent Racism: They have endured social ostracism and racial segregation in education and commerce well into the 20th century.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chestnut_Ridge_peopleAumua Amata Radewagen is a significant political figure as the first woman and first Republican to represent American Samoa in the U.S. House of Representatives. Her heritage is diverse, combining Samoan, Chinese, German, Native Hawaiian, and Scottish ancestries, reflecting a rich racial background. She has broken barriers as the highest-ranking Asian-Pacific federal officeholder in the Republican Party. Elected in 2014 and winning subsequent re-elections with historic margins, Radewagen's tenure showcases the growing political influence of mixed-race and Asian-Pacific Americans in U.S. politics. Her political career is noted for bipartisan efforts and significant contributions to the representation of Pacific Islanders at the federal level.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amata_Coleman_Radewagen Nora Kawailiula Stewart Coleman (1920-2005) was a pioneering figure of mixed Chinese, German, Native Hawaiian, and Scottish heritage. As the first Pacific Islander to serve as First Lady of American Samoa in 1956, she broke racial and cultural barriers. Her role spanned five decades, supporting her husband, Peter Tali Coleman, the first Samoan governor, through multiple terms. Born in Hawaii, she actively engaged in educational and children's issues while serving as First Lady. Her legacy includes her daughter, Aumua Amata Radewagen, who represents American Samoa in the U.S. House of Representatives, continuing the family's trailblazing contributions to political representation and leadership for Pacific Islanders.
A Lightweight Champion, a female politician who challenged the glass ceiling, and an influential jazz musician. Who were they?Today’s episode shares three more mixed-race public figures from history. Coined “The Reading Hour”, listen along as Jolie reads about these dynamic trailblazers.Saoul Paul Mamby (1947–2019) was an American boxer who held the WBC super lightweight title from 1980 to 1982. Born in the South Bronx, New York, to parents of Spanish and Jamaican descent, Mamby converted to Judaism at a young age. He began boxing in 1963, turned professional in 1969, and served in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War. Mamby's boxing career included notable victories and title defenses, facing opponents like Roberto Durán and Saengsak Muangsurin. He continued fighting into his 50s and attempted a comeback at age 60, becoming one of the oldest boxers to compete in an officially sanctioned bout. Known for his durability, Mamby was stopped only once in 85 professional fights.Mae Street Kidd (1904–1999) was an American businesswoman, civic leader, and politician known for her significant contributions during a time when gender and racial barriers were prominent. Born in Kentucky to an interracial family, she had a distinguished career in public relations and served in the Red Cross during WWII. In politics, she represented Louisville in the Kentucky House of Representatives from 1968 to 1984, advocating for landmark legislation such as the creation of the Kentucky Housing Corporation and the ratification of the Reconstruction Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. Kidd's legacy reflects her resilience and commitment to civil rights.Charles Mingus Jr. (1922–1979) was a multifaceted American jazz musician known for his prowess as an upright bassist, composer, bandleader, and pianist. He was a key figure in jazz history, collaborating with luminaries like Duke Ellington, Charlie Parker, and Max Roach. Mingus' innovative compositions spanned genres from bebop to avant-garde jazz, showcased in albums like "Pithecanthropus Erectus" and "Mingus Ah Um." His music continues to be celebrated, performed by groups like the Mingus Big Band. Mingus' life was marked by his diverse heritage and experiences with racism, shaping his music's themes of injustice and discrimination. He was also known for his tempestuous personality and occasionally violent temper, alongside his brilliance as a musician. Mingus left a lasting legacy in jazz, honored with accolades like induction into the Grammy Hall of Fame and a US postage stamp in his honor.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saoul_Mambyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mae_Street_Kiddhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_MingusDOWNLOAD and SUBSCRIBE to Generation Mixed, on Apple, Spotify, IHeart, or Spreaker!FOLLOW US: Instagram: @generationmixedpodcast | https://www.instagram.com/generationmixedpodcast/Tik-Tok: @GenMixedpodcast | https://www.tiktok.com/@genmixedpodcastSubscribe to our newsletter at www.nuwavemedia.orgE-mail us with any questions, comments, or suggestions for future episodes: Generationmixedpodcast@gmail.comWanna be on the show?

Reaching out and creating community with fellow podcast hosts!This exciting episode, we meet Rachael Go, a fellow host in the mixed race community, who co-hosts with her two siblings on the Mixd Movement podcast. We discuss Rachel’s upbringing, reuniting with her siblings,podcasting insights, as well as her contribution to the Breast Cancer foundation in a contest “FabOver40”“Rachael Go, a Midwest native, was born into a unique family situation. She was the only one of mixed race. Rachael grew up knowing her dad and her biological father were two different people. This family dynamic led to a confusing and isolating adolescence. As an adult, Rachael moved to the Pacific Northwest. After settling into her new home, she began to notice other mixed-race people had their own unique, yet similar life experiences. This inspired her to create a podcast to empower others to love and accept all aspects of themselves. She created and launched The Mix'd Movement Podcast in May of 2022. She currently co-hosts with her two estranged half-siblings after reconnecting while grieving the passing of their biological father. Rachael also founded Polished Velvet while diving into a career in personal development coaching. She primarily works with clients navigating the nuances of their racial identity. Rachael has been featured in other podcasts, spoken at community events, and regularly hosts workshops on topics surrounding multiracial and multicultural life experiences.”https://www.instagram.com/polished.velvet?igsh=MTRkNXZxOWx4NjczZg%3D%3D&utm_source=qrhttps://www.instagram.com/mixd.movement?igsh=MXBmamV4cDQ3aXRicA==https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100085305740919&mibextid=opq0tGhttps://msha.ke/mixdmovement.comDOWNLOAD and SUBSCRIBE to Generation Mixed, on Apple, Spotify, IHeart, or Spreaker!FOLLOW US: Instagram: @generationmixedpodcast | https://www.instagram.com/generationmixedpodcast/Tik-Tok: @GenMixedpodcast | https://www.tiktok.com/@genmixedpodcastSubscribe to our newsletter at www.nuwavemedia.orgE-mail us with any questions, comments, or suggestions for future episodes: Generationmixedpodcast@gmail.comWanna be on the show?
