Faculty Affiliate Sarah Elizabeth Gaither, PhD, the Nicholas J. and Theresa M. Leonardy Associate Professor Psychology & Neuroscience at Duke University, recently published an op-ed on multiracial identity for MSNBC.

Dr. Gaither, in debunking Donald Trump’s recent comments about the racial identity of Kamala Harris, emphasized the “counterproductive and dangerous” nature of Trump’s comments and highlighted the need for Americans to think flexibly about identity, as individuals can and do hold multiple identities (across race, gender, religion, and other categories) “without being disingenuous.”
