Miscegenation

Miscegenation is when people from different races or ethnic groups marry or have children. It happens when people from different backgrounds fall in love and decide to get married, or when two people who have different skin color have a baby together. Miscegenation has become much more common over the years. For example, more people who are of different races or ethnic groups get married and form blended families. Having a diverse, blended family is something special and unique!
