Multigenerational Mixed (MGM) individuals are Multiracial people who do not have two monoracial parents.[1] This is most commonly used to describe members of ethnic groups with ancestry of multiple different races. However, it has also been used to describe individuals whose ancestors first experienced mixing more recently, such as someone with monoracial grandparents or great-grandparents.[2]
Examples
[edit]African Americans
[edit]African Americans are genetically diverse with it being found that the average African American has 73.2–82.1% Sub-Saharan African, 16.7–24% European, and 0.8–1.2% Native American genetic ancestry.[3][4][5] This is widely believed to be due to the raping of enslaved African American women by White men.[6] This European admixture remained prevalent over time, even for African Americans who had no recent monoracial white relatives.[7]
