Association of MultiEthnic Americans : ウィキペディア英語版 | Association of MultiEthnic Americans The Association of MultiEthnic Americans (AMEA) is an international collaboration of community organizations. With dedication to advocacy and education on behalf of the mixed-race community, AMEA works to promote a community of acceptance and equality. ==History==
On July 4, 1986, the ''Organizing Committee for a National Association of MultiEthnic Americans'' was formed by representatives of local mixed-race groups, which emerged during the late 1970s and early 1980s. These were the first groups to focus specifically on mixed-race identities. Many of these organizations, such as I-Pride (San Francisco Bay Area) and the Biracial Family Network (Chicago) formed after anti-miscegenation laws were struck down. With an increased amount of legally recognized interracial relationships, parents of mixed-race children organized and gave their children spaces to socialize together. After parents, multiracial adults and others began organizing, they began challenging the official classification of mixed-race individuals, particularly in connection with the public school system. In November 1988, members of the ''Organizing Committee for a National Association of MultiEthnic Americans'' met in Berkeley, California and founded AMEA to serve as a national platform to advocate for their rights. I-Pride President Carlos A. Fernandez was elected President and Biracial Family Network President Ramona Douglass was elected Vice President.
