#8 The Challenges of Traveling as a Multiracial Family

On episode #8 of the podcast, we're discussing the challenges of traveling as a multiracial family. Thanks to Cindy McCain, the widow of Senator John McCain, this issue recently made headlines when Mrs. McCain believed she was witnessing a case of child trafficking at an Arizona airport. What she really saw was a mother traveling with her mixed-race child, which according to McCain, looked suspicious and warranted police intervention. I'm joined by travel blogger and interracial justice worker, Carmen Sognonvi to talk about what it's really like to travel with a family that "doesn't match," and to discuss the benefits and joys of family travel.
