NEW BOOK - "The New Face of America" - COMPLETED AND SCHEDULED TO BE PUBLISHED - MARCH 2012

I am delighted, overjoyed, and relieved that my new book entitled, "The New Face of America: How the Emerging Multiracial, Multiethnic Majority is Changing the United States," is completed. I finished writing the manuscript on June 25th and it was another great journey of learning, researching, interviewing and sharing information about individuals who identify themselves as multiracial. Those who identify themselves as "multiracial" have finally been officially recognized again by our 2010 U.S. Census and the census data findings definitely show that multiracial populations have dramatically increased during the past decade. The increased numbers are not only surprising to demographers, scholars and researchers but also the general public!

In my new book, I share with you the values, beliefs, traditions, patterns and cultural history of multiracials in America. Unfortunately, their issues and lifestyles have been overlooked in our country for years, yet now is the time to correct our misconceptions and stereotypes about multiracials and truly appreciate how they are changing America now and particularly in the near future.

My new book is scheduled to be released in March 2012! Over the next several months, I will give you updates of the book's publicity and prepromotional activities. It will be published by the international publisher -- ABC-CLIO (Praeger Publishers) and I have been fortunate to publish other books with them.

To check out my publisher's early promotional book flyer, here is the link: http://www.abc-clio.com/product.aspx?id=2147509507

After review, feel free to send me an email (baileye@ecu.edu) and let me know your thoughts and comments. Feel free also to pre-order my new book at ABC-CLIO publishers.

Enjoy Your Summer and Change is Coming!

New Year 2011 -NEW RESEARCH PROJECT!!


It's a brand new year and as a Medical and Cultural Anthropologist, it's time for a new research project. One of my new research projects for the year involves learning about multiracial groups in the United States. Surprisingly with all the new data coming from our recent U.S. Census reporting, there is still very little information on the issues related to multiracial populations in the United States. This simply does not make sense! It is 2011 and our country know little about all the various multiracial groups in the U.S.. Why is this?

I am therefore beginning my own long-term research, book project to learn more about multiracial groups in America. The book project is entitled:

"The New Face of America: How the Emerging Multiracial, Multiethnic Majority is Changing the United States"

In fact, I have contacted a number of professional organizations whose members are multiracial to find out if they are willing to share information about their issues. So hopefully, if there are individuals who are willing to share their multiracial story with me, please feel free to contact me at: ebailey8@aol.com to receive a brief open-ended, qualitative questionnaire.

This is my first step into this very significant human rights issue!
