Ep. 190 - In this retrospective episode, we go back to the beginning of the Multiracial Family Man Podcast, literally, and revisit and reply our first interview, which was of Sebastian A. Jones.

Sebastian is a moviemaker, music-maker, and writer who appeared on the podcast for a discussion of the "multiracial experience" particularly as portrayed in literature and the arts.

He is the co-author, along with actress Garcelle Beauvais, of the I Am Children's book series, including the acclaimed book, I Am Mixed.  He also has a series of graphic novels and a Young Adult novel, featuring characters of mixed heritage (like Sebastian himself).  For more on Sebastian, please go to: http://www.strangercomics.com/.
